Cherry blossoms（さくら）

Japanese people love cherry blossoms they are one of Japan’s national flowers. We have a habit to appreciate cherry blossoms in Spring.

There is a Japanese song called “Sakura sakura”.
Most Japanese people know this song because they learnt it during music class in Japanese elementary school.

An Armenian taught me that there was a Youtube video of this song being played by an Armenian group, far away from Japan. Their beautiful sound impressed me so much !

The lyrics of the song are as follows.

さくら　さくら
野山も里も見渡す限り
かすみかくもか
朝日ににおう
さくら　さくら
花ざかり

Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
In fields and villages
As far as you can see.
Is it a mist, or clouds?
Fragrant in the morning sun.
Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
Flowers in full bloom.

I can't wait for spring🌸
