勇者は幸運に恵まれる yūsha wa kōun ni megumareru Fortune Favors The Brave

Fortune Favors The Brave in Japanese is 勇者は幸運に恵まれる which is read yūsha wa kōun ni megumareru

勇者は幸運に恵まれる (yūsha wa kōun ni megumareru): the brave are blessed with good fortune.

Fortune favors the brave: boldness moves fortune, and the brave get the luck. The Japanese says it as a statement about the brave, that they are blessed with good fortune, where the English makes Fortune the actor; it is a modern rendering made for the English line, plain and grammatical, with no older Japanese proverb under it, so a scroll of these words says in Japanese what the title says. The Japanese tradition's own word on fortune before a charge is 運は天にあり, fortune is Heaven's, and it moves anyway; whether you hang it for the luck or for the boldness is yours.

The Japanese sentence is the English-Japanese dictionaries' rendering of the English proverb fortune favors the brave, in print by 1957, which itself translates a Latin proverb Cicero already called vetus proverbium, an old proverb, in 45 BC.

Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase brushes your scroll by hand when you order it. Each scroll bears her red seal, 英利, and her signature.

The scrolls are 12 1/4" W × 43" H (31 × 109 cm) with real silk borders and Japanese paper that are layered so the scroll hangs straight and will not warp over time. The scrolls themselves are made by Sankō (株式会社三幸) in Gifu prefecture, which has been making high quality scrolls since 1947, and we have worked with Sankō for over two decades.

Eri Takase was born and raised in Osaka, Japan, and holds the rank of Shihan, the highest rank in Japanese calligraphy, from the Bokuteki-kai and the Bunka-shodo. About Master Takase
