[1] This is a line from the Japanese poem "Iroha", dated back to the Heian era. It is unique because it contains every character of Japanese syllabary exactly once.
[2] The name given to Japan by Marco Polo.
[3] The word used here is "hikikomotte", which you might recognize as a verb form of "Hikikomori", using a modern term to reference the time Japan was closed off to the rest of the world.
[4] The kanji given here is "kuni" meaning "country", but the pronunciation given is "hito" meaning "person".
[5] As opposed to the first line of the song, which is in archaic Japanese, this line has a similar meaning in modern Japanese.
