Moriyama Naotaro – Sakura (Dokusho)

To sing of that single moment when cherry blossoms bloom,
with every feeling held within — that is “Sakura (Dokusho).”

In the moment when petals fall,
people have long promised to meet again.

Even partings that cannot be undone,
even distances that cannot be crossed —
we still wish to meet again, as the seasons turn.

Life returns, and begins again.
That is what the cherry blossom embodies.

This song flows through the hearts of the Japanese people —
a truly irreplaceable masterpiece.
