Mazinga!
Mazinga!
trema,
il regno delle Tenebre del Male
dalla Fortezza della Scienza arriva
con i suoi pugni atomici
Mazinga, Robot
vola,
si tuffa dalle stelle giu' in picchiata
se sei il nemico prega è gia' finita
la morte batte i denti, c'e'
Mazinga, Robot
Mazinga, Robot (braccia rotanti!)
Mazinga, Robot (doppio laser!)
Mazinga, Robot (bomba di fuoco!)
ha la mente di Tetsuya ma tutto il resto fa da se'
non conosce la paura ne' sa il dolore che cos'e'
lotta, cade, si rialza, sempre vincera'
Mazinga, Robot
Mazinga, Robot (raggi fotonici!)
Mazinga, Robot (lama del diavolo!)
Mazinga, Robot (doppio boomerang!)
Mazinga!
Mazinga!
Mazinga!
Mazinga!
forte,
con una mano spacca una montagna
dagli occhi sputa fuori raggi gamma
non c'e' chi è forte piu' di te
Mazinga, Robot
Mazinga, Robot
ha la mente di Tetsuya ma tutto il resto fa da se'
non conosce la paura ne' sa il dolore che cos'e'
se hai bisogno puoi chiamarlo, come un fulmine verra'
Mazinga, Robot
Mazinga, Robot
Mazinga, Robot (bombe jet!)
Mazinga, Robot (luce atomica!)
Mazinga, Robot (spada diabolica!)
Mazinga, Robot (spirale perforante!)
Mazinga, Robot (lama atomica!)
Mazinga, Robot (pugno atomico!)
Mazinga, Robot (pugni rotanti!)
Mazinga, Robot (doppio laser!)
Mazinga, Robot (doccia di fuoco!)
Mazinga, Robot (razzi fotonici!)
Mazinga, Robot (lama diabolica!)
Mazinga, Robot (doppio boomerang!) ...
The lyrics of Superobots' song "Il Grande Mazinger" are a tribute to the fictional robot hero Mazinger-Z, created by the Japanese manga artist Go Nagai. Mazinger-Z is depicted as a colossal mecha, designed by the scientist Juzo Kabuto to fight the evil forces of Dr. Hell, who seeks to conquer the world with his mechanical monsters. In the song, Mazinger-Z is presented as a fearless and powerful savior, with the ability to soar through space and defeat any opponent with an arsenal of advanced weapons.
The opening lines of the song call upon Mazinger-Z with a repeated chant of "Mazinga!" (the Italian equivalent of the robot's original name). The lyrics then describe Mazinger-Z's arrival from the Fortress of Science, wielding its atomic fists to battle the kingdom of Evil Darkness. The robot's prowess is highlighted with vivid phrases like "spitting out gamma rays from its eyes" and "breaking mountains with a single hand."
The chorus of the song celebrates Mazinger-Z's endurance and resilience, emphasizing how even when it falls in battle, it will always rise again to victory. The lyrics evoke an aura of invincibility around the robot, epitomizing its status as a pop culture icon of heroic strength and justice.
