Please refer to my previous blog about Tukimi, Jyugoya. Last night was the the day which a beautiful full moon was in the sky. Today’s Japanese children’s song is associated to Jyugoya.
Usagi (a Rabbit)
Otuki sam – a moon
Miru – look at
Haneru – to jump
Japanese lyric in Romaji and English translation
