====Original Japanese====
闇の彼方 静寂を引き裂き<br>
地球の眠り 呼び起こすのは<br>
どいつだ?

ほら目の前 邪悪な魂達<br>
逃げ場は無い まっすぐに受け止めろ!<br>
サムワン・テルズ・ミー「弱気」や「恐れ」を消去して<br>
僕らは意識組み替える

その手を強く握り<br>
互いの絆 信じて<br>
戦え!

:さぁ オール・アィ・キャン・ドゥ
:アンド・オール・ユー・キャン・ドゥ
:羽ばたけ トランスフォーム
:その胸貫く怒りを力に変え
:今 オール・アィ・キャン・ドゥ
:アンド・オール・ユー・キャン・ドゥ
:輝け トランスフォーム

進化のステージへ<br>
タッチ・アンド・ゴー!

====Rōmaji transliteration====
Yami no kanata seijaku wo hikisaki<br>
Hoshi no nemuri yobi okosuno wa<br>
Doitsuda?

Hora me no mae jaaku na tamashii tachi<br>
Nigeba wa nai massugu ni uketomero!<br>
Someone Tells Me "yowaki" ya "osore" wo shōkyoshite<br>
Bokura wa ishiki kumikaeru

Sono te wo tsuyoku nigiri<br>
Tagai no kizuna shinjite<br>
Tatakae!

:Saa All I Can Do
:And All You Can Do
:Habatake Transform
:Sono mune tsuranuku ikari wo chikara ni kae
:Ima All I Can Do
:And All You Can Do
:Kagayake Transform

Shinka no Stage e<br>
Touch And Go!

====English translation====
From the far darkness someone is tearing silence<br>
Awakening this planet's sleep<br>
Who is it?

The evil spirits are just front of us<br>
Nowhere to escape, catch it straight through!<br>
Someone tells me to delete "timidity" and "fear"<br>
We reconstuct our minds

Grasp in that hand strongly<br>
and believe in our connections<br>
Fight!

:Then, all I can do
:And all you can do
:Flap your wings and Transform
:transform anger piercing heart into strength
:Now, all I can do
:And all you can do
:Shine, Transform

To the stage of evolution<br>
Touch and go!

==Notes==
* This intro uses completely original animation and features no recycled footage from the show.
* To say that this intro has little to do with the actual show would be an understatement. [[Ironhide (Animated)|Some]] [[Arcee (Animated)|characters]] with small roles within the series as a whole get lots of exposure in the video, while more [[Jazz (Animated)|prominent]] [[Lugnut|ones]] are only briefly seen, and [[Sari Sumdac|one]] particularly important character is completely absent. Rather than focusing on [[Detroit]], the fight scenes seem to go all over the globe, such as Bulkhead in the great wall of China, Blitzwing in Egypt, Ironhide in Sydney, Lockdown fighting Prowl in Osaka Japan, Megatron apeearing in Washington. Ironically, Ironhide, whose name was given to Bulkhead because of the movie, is very prominent despite having been stolen of his identity.
* Optimus Prime seems to power up with [[burning justice]] and for some reason a [[Cloaked mystery villain|strange evil character]] appears at the beginnning the video.
* For those who have not seen the show, the intro spoils a '''lot''' of things including Blackarachnia's relation to Elita-1, Starscream's embedded Allspark shard, his clones, Omega Supreme's appearance and even Longarm's betrayal, as Ratchet fights him rather than Shockwave.
