Original Japanese Lyrics Japanese Transliteration English Translation

胸につけてるマークは流星
自慢のジェットで 敵をうつ
光の国からぼくらのために
来たぞ 我等のウルトラマン

手にしたカプセルピカリと光り
百万ワットの 輝きだ
光の国から正義のために
来たぞ 我等のウルトラマン

手にしたガンが ビュビュンと唸る
怪獣退治の専門家
光の国から地球のために
来たぞ 我等のウルトラマン

Mune ni tsuketeru māku wa ryūsei
Jiman no jetto de teki wo utsu
Hikari no kuni kara bokura no tameni
Kita zo warera no Urutoraman

Tenishita kapuseru pikari to hikari
Hyakuman watto no kagayaki da
Hikari no kuni kara seigi no tameni
Kita zo warera no Urutoraman

Tenishita gan ga byubyun to unaru
Kaijū taiji no senmonka
Hikari no kuni kara Chikyū no tameni
Kita zo warera no Urutoraman

The mark in his chest is a meteor,
He beats down the enemies proudly with his jet.
From the Land of Light for the sake of us,
Here he comes, our hero Ultraman.

The capsule in his hand sparkles and flashes,
The radiance of a million watts.
From the Land of Light for the sake of righteousness,
Here he comes, our hero Ultraman.

The gun in his hand buzzes out "za-zap",
He is an expert at monster extermination.
From the Land of Light for the sake of the Earth,
Here he comes, our hero Ultraman.

Ultraman, Ultraman
Here he comes from the sky
Ultraman, Ultraman
Watch our hero fly

In a super jet he comes
From a billion miles away
From a distant planet land
Comes our hero, Ultraman

Ultraman, Ultraman
Lui qui va dans le ciel
Ultraman, Ultraman
Lui qui vient du soleil

Le voilà tout seul à bord
De son avion supersonique
Le héros de l’ère atomique
On l’appelle Ultraman

Ultraman, Ultraman
Ultraman va a llegar
Ultraman, Ultraman
Emociones nos va a dar

De un mundo a 100 millones
De kilómetros viajó
A través del cielo azul
Nuestro héroe Ultraman
