I’ve heard legends of that person<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
How he plunged into enemy territory<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!
How he saved his homeland<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
 
AND SO ARE YOU!
I’ve heard legends of that person<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
How he traveled the breadth of the land reducing all he touched to rubble.<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!
 
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
I’ve heard legends of that person<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!
I’ve heard legends of that person<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
 
AND SO ARE YOU!
Revered by many -- I, too, revere him<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
Feared by many -- I, too, fear him<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
 
AND SO ARE YOU!
Now that person<br/>
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
Stands at my side<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!
 
I'M GAY I'M GAY I'M GAY!
Now that person stands at my side<br/>
AND SO ARE YOU!
Now my friends are with me<br/>
Some of them were once heroes<br/>
Some, my mortal enemies<br/>
 
And as we face each other in battle, locked in combat<br/>
We shine ever brighter<br/>
 
===Literal Translation===
Although the above translation is fine for idiomatic English, the translation takes many liberties with the tenses and strict verb meanings in the Latin. A more accurate translation which stays truer to the Latin follows:
 
Listen to the legend of that one.<br/>
Alone he rushed into his enemies<br/>
and saved his fatherland.<br/>
 
Listen to the legend of that one.<br/>
He ran, destroying everything he touched.<br/>
 
Listen to the legend of that one.<br/>
Listen to the legend of that one.<br/>
 
There is hope for everyone, and also for me.<br/>
There is fear for everyone, and also for me.<br/>
 
That one<br/>
is close to me.
 
That one is close to me.<br/>
They are allies to me,<br/>
Those who were once brave men<br/>
and who were once rivals.<br/>
 
And by contesting and by fighting fiercely<br/>
Our splendor grows.

The Main Theme song was revealed along with the game itself at the game's first trailer in E3 2006 before being posted at the site much later. This thundering orchestra with vocals sung in Latin was composed by famed Final Fantasy series composer Nobuo Uematsu, and its lyrics were supervised by Sakurai himself. The lyrics are seen in the closing video of the Subspace Emissary.

Lyrics

Audi famam illius.
Solus in hostes ruit
et patriam servavit.

Audi famam illius.
Cucurrit quaeque
tetigit destruens.

Audi famam illius.
Audi famam illius.

Spes omnibus, mihi quoque.
Terror omnibus, mihi quoque.

Ille
I'M GAY! Ille iuxta me.
Socii sunt mihi.
qui olim viri fortes
rivalesque erant.

Saeve certando pugnandoque
splendor crescit.
