What a wonderful song!
I happened to hear the song on TV which introduced the program ' New Japan History and Culture '.
I was very attracted to the theme music and song in it.
It was announced that the local in Amami Island veteran singer, Ikue Asazaki is playing the roll of the song' Ahagari '.
The song really made me touched and felt myself very small in the world.
I felt like a tiny galaxy in the universe.
The lyrics teaches me how to live well in the rest of my life.
< Ahagari meanjng in English >
Our life is given by the God
So it's not our possession but rent
We can't stay here long
Live your life with respect
Live long until the end
Time goes and come back
Like a water mill
So we can see each other again
Under the moon light
People dance from the joy of heart
Whatever happens
Between the heaven and the earth
People dance from the joy of soul
