Japanese Lyrics
さらば地球よ　旅立つ船は

宇宙戦艦ヤマト

宇宙の彼方　イスカンダルへ

運命背負い　今とび立つ

必ずここへ　帰って来ると

手をふる人に　笑顔で答え

銀河をはなれ　イスカンダルへ

はるばるのぞむ　宇宙戦艦ヤマト

誰かがこれを　やらねばならぬ

期待の人が　俺たちならば

銀河をはなれ　イスカンダルへ

はるばるのぞむ　宇宙戦艦ヤマト

English Translation (Translated by Madame Tarantula)
Farewell, Earth!…(This) ship that departs (is)

The Space Battleship Yamato

(It) takes off now…and bears (its) fate

To Iscandar…beyond the cosmos

“Without fail, (we) will return…to this place”

Answer with a smile…to the people that wave (their) hands

To wish all the way….to Iscandar

To be free from the galaxy…the Space Battleship Yamato

Someone…has to do this

If we are…the people of (their) hopes

To wish all the way….to Iscandar

To be free from the galaxy…the Space Battleship Yamato
