Holiday topic

It's an old but new topic about National song "Kimiga Yo".
I thought it was very difficult to understand because of the words were ancient and noble in the old days from " Kokin Waka Shu".
But the author of this topic says that this song has the most beautiful meaning in the world and peaceful mind in it different from other countries.
Oh, I see the words in this song has something with naturalism and animism in harmony with nature.
It's very simple rhythm and poetic.
It's interesting to find the value in our culture.
The awesome National song

  1. Lyrics of " kimiga Yo" are those that used one of the " Kokin Wakashu" is. and have heard befor.
    And, melody are using the " Etenraku" of Gagaku.
    I think that person wrote this " Waka" by thought an important person.
    It would be why? that the lyrics changed from " waga kimi" to "kimiga yo".
    By the way,

  4. We have been singing the "Kimigayo" as Japan's national anthem from a young age in naturally do not know the meaning of the song.
    But, when from I am to be old I thought this song is great.
    "Kimigayo" is a very good song with a nobility and majesty of Japan tradition and national anthem to get pride in the world.

    By the way, I went to Jinzu Gorge and Jike Park at walking meeting of elderly club of town to watch autumn leaves.
    Especially autumn leaves of Jike park now was the climax.
    In addition, I'm sorry reply comments is delayed

  5. When I was child,I thought "Kimigako" was a out-of-date and difficult song.
    Now when I heard it at the opening ceremony and awarding ceremony,I thought it was simple and dignified.
    I didn't know the word is the reference from " Kokin Waka Shu".
    When I knew the meaning of the word,I thought it was the wonderful song fitting national anthem.
