the most harmonious,
the ever victorious and the very best in the world!
By chanting with strong determination and conviction,
let's advance together in perfect unity of both the heart
and the mind.

The SGI is like a castle, solidly built by capable people.
Let's do our utmost to encourage and support
our youth division members!
Let's help the new people in the organisation to grow!
Now, let's make every possible effort so that all of our
youth division members can gather
to celebrate this next headquarters meeting of the SGI.*
