Boys and Girls Association Song

The Boys and Girls Association Song is often sung at Sunday School and other BGA events.

English Version

Rising early, being honest, and being diligent
With these words of parent fixed always in our minds
With an eye to Hinagata as shown by the Foundress
You and I all together as the children of the Way
United, hand in hand, let us walk on the path of God
Oh, beyond the horizon, lies our tomorrow
It is Hinokishin, now we all go as one.

From nearby, from far away, come ye all children
Not giving way to any hardship and sorrow
So let's help each other and let us live in joy
You and I all together as the children of the Way
United, arm in arm, we sing out high our song.
Oh, beyond the horizon, lies our tomorrow
Our hearts in unison, now we all go as one.

Now let us carry the Teachings to this wide universe
Taking over the minds set by our parents
And let's strive to become a good Yoboku then
You and I all together as the children of the Way
United, side by side, towards the goal of the Joyous Life
Oh, beyond the horizon, lies our tomorrow
Our hearts to God always, now we all go as one.
