Lyrics

The daisho is a Japanese term referring to the traditional weapons of the samurai. The daisho is composed of the katana and the wakizashi. The etymology of this word becomes apparent when the terms daito, meaning big sword, and shoto, meaning small sword, are used; daito + shoto = daisho. The katana, the longer of the two swords, was typically employed in man-to-man combat. The wakizashi made an effective main-gauche or close-combat weapon.
