This is a song about cherry trees and their blossoms. It is an old Japanese folk song. The song was written for children to learn to play a Japanese harp.

If you are Japanese, you will definitely hear this song somewhere from children to adults.

I learned to play the Japanese harp when I was young. It was the first song I drew at that time. And I love it because I have heard its melody since I was a little girl and it still warms my heart very much.

My name is Natsuko Ogiwara. I moved to Enschede with my family from Japan four years ago. I am happy to hear my old favorite songs in Holland, far away from Japan.
