Synced lyrics
atari sure ba kisama nanka ate miro yo
If you can land a hit, go ahead and try!
If it is a hit, someone like you try to hit, I say.
Goku uses 貴様 (kisama), an extremely contemptuous form of 'you' in Japanese, signaling he sees Frieza as a true enemy deserving no respect.
na nani wo fuzake yagatte
What the hell are you playing around at!
What (are you) messing around doing, damn you.
やがって (yagatte) is a contemptuous suffix expressing furious indignation at insolent behavior, very typical in shounen anime confrontations.
hoshi wa kowasete mo tatta ichi
Even though you can destroy a planet, just one...
Even though (you) can destroy a planet, just one...
References Frieza's ability to destroy entire planets with a single finger, demonstrated in the Dragon Ball Z Namek arc.
nin no ningen wa kowase nee you da na nanimono da
...it seems you cannot destroy even a single human. Who are you?
One human it seems (you) cannot destroy, huh. What kind of person are you?
何者だ (nanimono da) is a classic anime confrontation phrase used right before a hero names themselves.
tokkuni gozonji nan darou
You already know, do you not.
Long since, (you) already know it, right?
Goku uses honorific ご存知 (gozonji) sarcastically — Frieza surely senses his power level and knows who he faces.
ore wa chikyuu kara kisama wo taosu tame ni yatte kita
I came from Earth to defeat you,
I, from Earth, for the purpose of defeating you, came here.
俺 (ore) is the rough masculine first-person pronoun Goku consistently uses, marking him as direct and battle-hardened.
saiaku
...the worst.
The worst.
Subtitle OCR artifact. 最味 is non-standard and likely represents 最悪 (saiaku) completing Goku's declaration from the previous line.
odayaka na kokoro wo mochi nagara hageshii ikari ni yotte
Possessing a calm heart, yet awakened through fierce anger,
While having a calm heart, through fierce anger...
Alludes to Super Saiyan lore: a Saiyan with a pure heart who experiences extreme anger achieves the legendary transformation.
mezameta densetsu no seishin
...the awakened spirit of legend.
The awakened legendary spirit.
伝説の精神 directly references the Super Saiyan of Legend, a mythical warrior said to appear once every thousand years in Saiyan lore.

Songo da
I am Son Goku.
Son Goku (I) am.
The iconic self-declaration: Son Goku da. Stating name + da in Japanese is a powerful identity claim. This is the climax of the scene.
