A JAPANESE WAR SONO.
It Describes the Prowess of Japanese
During the War With China.
When Japan sent a party of naval of-
ficers and sailors to the States to take
charge of the cruiser Kasai, built by
the Cramps, they taught one of the Jap-
anese war songs to their .American ac-
quaintances. Here is how the Japanese
version ran in part :
Tenshin aoyaku hakai hashi
Toyo heiwa no, giwo shiranu,
Mowed ganko no clean-chan ga.
Burei kiwaniaru furumaiwa,
Sotshi yakuwan korai hifun,
Nippon danshino udemaide,
Yates no game o yaburanto.
Translated, the song is as follows :
"The Tien Tsin treaty has been brok-
en. The extremely discourteous conduct
of the barbarous and stubborn Chinese,
failing to recognize the value of peace
in the east, causes teeth to be set and
arms folded, while public sentiment is
sorrowful and angry.
"To break this dream of barbarism by
the power of the Japanese soldiery, our
reinforcements are continually advanc-
ing, with flags floating bravely.
"Both in the desperate battle of the
Gulf of Pechili and in an attack on the
Province of Serio, we displayed the na-
tional prowess by slaughtering the Chin-
ese fighting against our country.
• "We are marching through a country
in which the scorching beat blisters the
flesh. We are passing Omagh fire and
water, but we do not care. The enemy's
projectiles come like hail. The corpses
are piled mountain high at Ueijo. Blood
discolors the waters of Wei Hai Wei, but
our soldiers, never retreating an inch,
easily captured the Chinese fort.
"Grasping 400 provinces with one hand
and planting the flag of the Rising Sun
on the Castle of Pekin, let us return in.
triumph. For you are to be an example
of the military elan, increasing the
Ifame of the nation.
"-Human life is only fifty years. If we
`; are reluctant to 1,=e it, we become dis-
t loyal to the Emperor for generations.
•Two ways lie .pen before us : the
loyal way is to die. Let our motto be to
continue fighting until we fall exhausted.
