Original Japanese 走り出せこの想い 未来へとトランスフォーマー 導けよ自由へ 強くなれ！ IGNITION!! 僕の中に勇気を探す 熱き炎 微かに揺れる 君の中で目覚めた希望 弾け飛んだ空の彼方へ 聞こえる遙か遠く 僕らの明日乗せたメロディー 蹴散らせよ創造の この星を護るため 導いて英知よ 立ち上がれ！ 闘いの時は来た 銀河へとトランスフォーマー 手に掴む欠片に 夢映して IGNITION!! 宇宙の危機救うためなら どんな危険怖くないから 目指せよプラネットフォース 平和の鍵が眠る聖地 風を受け飛び立てば 信じてる友がいる 繋げてよ絆よ この想いよ！ 傷ついたこの空を 今だから抱きしめる 手に入れた希望を 重ね合わせて IGNITION!! 蹴散らせよ創造の この星を護るため 導いて英知よ 立ち上がれ！ 走り出せこの想い 銀河へとトランスフォーマー 未来への扉を 開け放てよ！ IGNITION!!

English translation Make these emotions start running To the future, Transformers Guide us, lead us to freedom Become stronger! IGNITION!! I was searching for courage within me The feverish flames sways dimly Hope has blossomed within you It has been flung to the end of the galaxy You can hear it from far away Our future is resting on that melody Let the creation spring forth So that this planet may be protected Guide us wisdom Stand up! The time to fight has come Go into the galaxy, Transformers Make the fragments Of your dream into reality IGNITION!! If possible I will save the universe's crisis I won't be afraid of any danger I have my eye on the Planet Force The sleeping holy ground's key to peace Take off if the wind's favorable I believe in my friends I will connect the bonds Of these emotions! That the skies are injured Is because I hold you close now Hope is obtained By superposing IGNITION!! Let the creation spring forth So that this planet may be protected Guide us wisdom Stand up! Make these emotions start running Go into the galaxy, Transformers The door to the future Is thrown open! IGNITION!!
