spring breezeSakushi: Wada Tetsuzou / Sakkyoku: Hirose Ryouhei
The song that expresses the warmth and freshness of spring is “Spring Wind.” The lyrics were written by Tetsuzō Wada and the music composed by Ryōhei Hirose.
The lyrics depict the arrival of the season from the perspective of the wind that blows in spring.
It’s also interesting that trees and flowers are personified.
In addition, the song features many onomatopoeic words, making it perfect for singing together in a lively, cheerful mood.
And because the song has a wonderful worldview, it seems enjoyable just to imagine the scenes painted by the lyrics.
Sakura, sakura
When you think of spring, isn’t the first thing that comes to mind cherry blossoms? There are many other famous flowers, but when you close your eyes, what you picture behind your eyelids is a row of cherry trees in bloom.
And this piece, “Sakura Sakura,” is a quintessential Japanese song—a classic sakura song.
It’s also well known as a practice piece for the koto.
You often hear it as background music in scenes meant to symbolize Japan.
It seems that the lyrics were a bit different before 1941, and singing it with the old lyrics can be fun too.
It’s a song that represents Japan’s beautiful four seasons—especially spring.
In conclusion
Spring nursery rhymes are filled with a gentle warmth that tenderly embraces children’s sensibilities.
Sharing time singing about the changing seasons will surely become a precious moment for parents and children.
