I am a musician, and have played in the 80's metal, rock etc...i have heard world music from Africa to Egypt, and this...THIS SONG is breathtaking. Her version of this is haunting. My japanese wife said it is a traditional song from Okinawa. So beautiful. Music is the language of Earth. You don't need to understand what is being sung, rather, you feel the vocals, emotion and the key of the music. Just amazing. You should also good The Boom, who wrote this.
@@neohubris maybe it wasn't originally a traditional Okinawan song, but with many Okinawan singers covering this song and with their own version, i think this song has become identified with Okinawa. And also there are a lot of examples where a song become assimilated with a culture due to its popularity. Just my opinion.
@@neohubris : Well, since it has connected with the locals that easily, it has become one. It's a good sign--a new generation carrying on culture and tradition in their own way.

sorry to be so off topic but does any of you know of a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost my account password. I love any help you can give me
@Milo Bradley I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process now. Seems to take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
The worst mistake I ever made to was to leave Okinawa...my homeland and where my ancestors are enshrined. This song chokes me the hell up every time I hear it.
My mother survived the battle of Okinawa but her first memory is of her mother and sister being shot as they tried to find shelter in a cave. When I hear this song I think of my Bachan (grandmother) I never got to meet. Thank you so much for this beautiful song.
I'm so sorry to both of you. My heart goes out to you. I send to you my condolences. By God's grace you'll reunite in heaven. I can't wait to see you reunite🩵
Ha florecido la flor de Deigo, ha llamado al viento y a la tormenta. La flor de Deigo florece a su plenitud, llamo al viento y llego la tormenta.La tristeza se repite como las olas que rodean la isla. Me encontre contigo en el bosque de cañas, y bajo las cañas nos despedimos por mil años. Canción isleña, subete al viento y cruza el mar junto a los pajaros. Canción isleña, subete al viento y entregale mis lagrimas a ellos. Las flores de Deigo se marchitan y caen, y solo hacen pequeñas olas. Una humilde felicidad son como las flores hechas de las burbujas en las olas. Amigo mio que cantamos en el bosque de cañas, nos separamos por miles de años debajo de ellas. Canción isleña, subete al viento y cruza el mar junto a los pajaros. Canción isleña, subete al viento y entregale mi amor a ellos Le pido al mar, al universo a dios y a la vida, que haya una calma eterna.

Me encontre contigo en una plantación de caña de azucar, y me despedi para siempre del himno nacional . Canción isleña, cruza el mar junto con el alma de todos los okinawenses que fallecieron en esta guerra, y cuentales a los del continente (la isla principal es donde esta Tokyo) el dolor y la tristeza de los okinawenses. La guerra termina justo cuando se caen las flores de Deigo el 23 de Junio de 1945.

saber que una canción tan linda tiene un mensaje tan triste y emotivo, y de muchas personas inocentes que cantan al unísono por la eternidad este mensaje. :'(
nao tinha visto ainda a traducao em espanhol. ficou perfeita. transmitiu cada gota de sentimento da cancao, parabens. Poderia ter dito tudo em espanhol para voce, mas nao teria graca, ate por que sou brasileiro, que disser filho de japones nascido no Brasil, e ha 22 anos vivendo no Japao.
I first heard this song in 1996 in Okinawa and i still love it. I feel so nostalgic, like going back to Okinawa and dance to this song again, it reminds me of Okinawa and its culture, beautiful place beautiful people with a kind heart.
English Lyrics: Just as my fingernails are dyed with the pigment from the balsam flowers, my heart is dyed with the teachings of my parents. The deigo flower has blossomed, and it has called the wind, and the storm has arrived. The deigo flowers are in full bloom, and they have called the wind, and the storm has come. The repetition of sadness, like the waves that cross the islands. I met you in the Uji forest. In the Uji forest I bid farewell to Chiyo. Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea. Island song, ride the wind, carry my tears with you. The deigo blossoms have fallen, soft ocean waves tremble. Fleeting joy, like flowers carried by the waves. To my friend who sang in the Uji forest. Beneathe the Uji, bid farewell to Yachiyo. Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea. Island song, ride the wind, carry my love with you. To the sea, to the universe, to God, to life, carry on this eternal dusk wind. Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea. Island song, ride the wind, carry my tears with you. Island Song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea. Island song, ride the wind, carry my love with you.
The lovers had taken refuge in a cave beneath a sugar cane forest to escape the war. [ In the Uji forest, I bid farewell to Chiyo ] "Uji" means "sugar cane". "Chiyo" means "forever". In a cave beneath the sugarcane forest, We bidded farewell to each other forever.
This song reminds me a lot of my grandfather. Always saying how he missed his home country, Okinawa. He passed away 20 year ago I was just a kid, but never forgot of him!
LAGU PULAU Bunga deigo telah mekar, dan memanggil sang angin, dan badaipun telah tiba Bunga deigo mengembang sempurna, dan mereka memanggil sang angin, dan badaipun tiba Kesedihan yang berulang, seperti ombak yang memecah di pulau Aku bertemu denganmu di gunung Uuji Di hutan Uuji kuucapkan selamat tinggal kepadamu Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa kesedihanku Kuntum deigo telah jatuh layu, dan sekarang hanya ombak kecil yang bergoyang Kebahagiaan yang kecil adalah seperti bunga dari buih ombak Aku bernyanyi bersamamu di hutan Uuji Dan sekarang aku berpisah denganmu selamanya Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya Kepada langit, alam semesta, Tuhan, dan kehidupan Tolong biarkan disana ada malam yang tenang selamanya Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya Lalalalala…….
She was then and is now, beautful and so talented. To see her smile at her partner is wonderful and his playing is so precise to hers. They are so perfect on this version.. I have studied this language for two years now and I am still an absolute novice. Okinawa has it's own dialect, like the welsh or cornish variations, but I really don't think knowing the language is very important.. The song is so emotional and Rimi is so, so, good, it's why I cry for no real reason.. EDIT:: Everything I thought was true, isn't... Her husband is the drummer (shock, horror) and she's a Tokyo girl who moved to Okinawa when her singing career failed, at first.. Still, her Okinawa version is based on her years there and she's still such a beautiful woman with such a beautiful and clear voice... I think I don't really care about anything other than the stunning noise she makes.
Just reading the story of this song and the lyrics and now understand why even though i never knew what she was saying her feelings she puts in it makes me want to cry.
Piotr T. Shima uta is a band, the booms song who are from and based on main land Japan. they made this song being inspired from Okinawan music and culture. although I like it better rimi sings it sad and beautiful song
As an Okinawan, we are a different race/culture from Japan. I do appreciate your love for the song/art. It was written as a stand that we won’t die quietly.
tengo la piel de gallina, me da escalofríos escuchar esta canción, los que todavía no lo saben deberían buscar lo que dice la letra y lo que significa para Japon y Okinawa.
I found this song on an aquascaper video a few days ago.... but Rimi's voice is hainting - I've been listening to this a lot of her other songs these last few days... the voice and music is so beautiful - so are the meanings of the lyrics! :D Now I just have to live with the fact that it took my 28 years to "discover" this amazing musicstyle!
the island song As the flower of Tiger's Claw blooms here and there they called wind and storm has come Repeated sorrow is like waves coming and going to this island In the forest of sugarcane I met you Under sugarcane field I parted you forever Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my tears As the flower of Tiger's Claw is gone, only small waves ripple My simple happiness was like a wave flower that blooms only for a short time The friends who sang in the forest of sugarcane I parted for ever Under sugarcane field Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my love My dear ocean, universe, god and life let us keep this evening calm ocean forever Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my tears Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my love
@@jordielninopolla750 war, in whatever the form, in whenever the period, at however it is conducted, for whatever the reason is evil. There is no justifying such unscrupulous violence or propagation of animosity. The fact remains that the Okinawans were devastated by the battles that took place in their homes and their tales still haunt the minds of people now. Just as there can never be justifying the unbridled violence against the south east Asia and China in the hands of the Japanese during the sino-japanese wars and ww2. It is important that we live on with these harrowing memories not as a means to encourage hatred, but as a stern lesson that war brings nothing but grief, pain, and destruction. We are people. We are humanity. And how we conduct ourselves determine the level of progress and culture of our kind.

@@rnbpl lamentablemente los malos modales tampoco y encontramos maleducados por todos lados. Parece que aprendió hace poco el significado de la palabra e intenta meterla en todos lados.
Imposible escuchar la canción sin que se caigan las lágrimas,esa voz tan dulce te llega al alma!!!! FELICITACIONES,ME SACO EL SOMBRERO ANTE ESTA VOZ!!!!!
The writer of the song wanted to dedicate it to the victims and survivors of the war where 1/3 of the population of the city died while moving from cave to cave to hide. The lyrics mention: a storm arriving, being separated for 1000 years, commanding the island song to ride the wind with the birds to cross the sea to delivery their tears and their love, pleading to the sea, the universe, to God, to life for an eternal calm to remain
This somg is beautiful, i love it, me encanta esta canción es muy bonita y me la se toda sin saber nada de japones pero se siente en el alma lo que dice
I am an indian and i dont understand anything in this song but the words are that much beatiful that i didnt know that when the song ended the song is toooooo beautiful (one secret i tell you i am learning japanese by japanfoundation I LOVE YOU🇯🇵
This is "Sanshin". It's Shamisen of Ryukyu (Okinawa). Sanshin play with Tsume(bachi) made of the horns of the water buffalo. She attach it to a first finger fingertip.
In contrast to its melodious beauty, this emotionally touching song was born, being inspired by a dreadful tragedy which occurred in the islands of Okinawa in Japan at the end of WWII in 1945. The Okinawa islands are situated farthest south in the Japanese Archipelago, and became the battlefields between Japan and USA. In the spring of 1945, the Japanese military fascist was desperate for the final counter-attacks, and ruthlessly exploited Okinawa as the defensive shield against the powerful USA forces which had advanced northward from Guam, and as the result of fierce battles, more than 90,000 non-combatant citizens were killed. Furthermore it must be memorized that many of the native casualties were ordered by the Japanese military to commit massive suicide, rather than surrender. This beautiful but sorrowful song is dedicated to the innocent deceased souls in Okinawa.
沖縄の魅力。沖縄の矜持。夏川りみさんの透き通る歌声と、真摯な歌唱には、惚れ惚れといたします。
Born near Kyoto and worked for a few years in Okinawa.. She absorbed the emotion of the Kingdom of Ruyuku when she was there.....

The worst mistake I ever made to was to leave Okinawa...my homeland and where my ancestors are enshrined. This song chokes me the hell up every time I hear it.
My mother survived the battle of Okinawa but her first memory is of her mother and sister being shot as they tried to find shelter in a cave. When I hear this song I think of my Bachan (grandmother) I never got to meet. Thank you so much for this beautiful song.
Yes, my great grandma was shot with my aunt and uncle who were children by US Marines

Ha florecido la flor de Deigo, ha llamado al viento y a la tormenta.
La flor de Deigo florece a su plenitud, llamo al viento y llego la tormenta.La tristeza se repite como las olas que rodean la isla.
Me encontre contigo en el bosque de cañas, y bajo las cañas nos despedimos por mil años.
Canción isleña, subete al viento y cruza el mar junto a los pajaros. Canción isleña, subete al viento y entregale mis lagrimas a ellos.
Las flores de Deigo se marchitan y caen, y solo hacen pequeñas olas. Una humilde felicidad son como las flores hechas de las burbujas en las olas.
Amigo mio que cantamos en el bosque de cañas, nos separamos por miles de años debajo de ellas.
Canción isleña, subete al viento y cruza el mar junto a los pajaros.
Canción isleña, subete al viento y entregale mi amor a ellos
Le pido al mar, al universo a dios y a la vida, que haya una calma eterna.
El autor explico el significado de estos verso de la siguiente manera:
Ha florecido la flor de Deigo, que se dice, llama el desastre. El 1 de Abril de 1945, llegan las tropas estadounidences a las playas de la isla principal de Okinawa.
desde abril a junio cuando la flor de Deigo florece a su plenitud (en 1945), se repitieron mascres una y otra vez, como si fueran las olas del mar.
Me encontre contigo en una plantación de caña de azucar, y me despedi para siempre del himno nacional .
Canción isleña, cruza el mar junto con el alma de todos los okinawenses que fallecieron en esta guerra, y cuentales a los del continente (la isla principal es donde esta Tokyo) el dolor y la tristeza de los okinawenses.
La guerra termina justo cuando se caen las flores de Deigo el 23 de Junio de 1945. Se marchitaron miles de vidas que son mas importantes que cualquier tesoro, y la vida cotidiana ya no existe en un lugar donde la mayoria de la gente ha fallecido.
Amigo mio que cantamos en el bosque de cañas, nos despedimos por miles de años debajo de las cañas
Esa persona con la que cantabamos murió en batalla dentro de las cuevas antibombas.
Que el sentimiento de los okinawenses y mi amor se suban en el viento, y junto con sus almas, cruzen el mar y lleguen a Nirai Kanai, o el lugar donde toda vida proviene. (Leyenda mitica okinawense).

English Lyrics:
Just as my fingernails are dyed with the pigment from the balsam flowers,
my heart is dyed with the teachings of my parents.
The deigo flower has blossomed, and it has called the wind, and the storm has arrived.
The deigo flowers are in full bloom, and they have called the wind, and the storm has come.
The repetition of sadness, like the waves that cross the islands.
I met you in the Uji forest.
In the Uji forest I bid farewell to Chiyo.
Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea.
Island song, ride the wind, carry my tears with you.
The deigo blossoms have fallen, soft ocean waves tremble.
Fleeting joy, like flowers carried by the waves.
To my friend who sang in the Uji forest.
Beneathe the Uji, bid farewell to Yachiyo.
Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea.
Island song, ride the wind, carry my love with you.
To the sea, to the universe, to God, to life, carry on this eternal dusk wind.
Island song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea.
Island song, ride the wind, carry my tears with you.
Island Song, ride the wind, with the birds, cross the sea.
Island song, ride the wind, carry my love with you.
Good translation. But those first two lines are not in the song. Never have been. Also, uji is the Okinawan word for sugarcane
The lovers had taken refuge in a cave beneath a sugar cane forest to escape the war.
[ In the Uji forest, I bid farewell to Chiyo ] "Uji" means "sugar cane". "Chiyo" means "forever".
In a cave beneath the sugarcane forest, We bidded farewell to each other forever.

LAGU PULAU
Bunga deigo telah mekar, dan memanggil sang angin, dan badaipun telah tiba
Bunga deigo mengembang sempurna, dan mereka memanggil sang angin, dan badaipun tiba
Kesedihan yang berulang, seperti ombak yang memecah di pulau
Aku bertemu denganmu di gunung Uuji
Di hutan Uuji kuucapkan selamat tinggal kepadamu
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa kesedihanku
Kuntum deigo telah jatuh layu, dan sekarang hanya ombak kecil yang bergoyang
Kebahagiaan yang kecil adalah seperti bunga dari buih ombak
Aku bernyanyi bersamamu di hutan Uuji
Dan sekarang aku berpisah denganmu selamanya
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya
Kepada langit, alam semesta, Tuhan, dan kehidupan
Tolong biarkan disana ada malam yang tenang selamanya
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin dan menyeberangi lautan bersama burung-burung
Lagu pulau, menaiki angin, membawa cintaku pergi bersamanya

I think I don't really care about anything other than the stunning noise she makes.
Year 3 and I've reached the standard of a child first entering the school system.. I'm seen as a 5 year old at the age of 62... Ah well.. Such is....
Just reading the story of this song and the lyrics and now understand why even though i never knew what she was saying her feelings she puts in it makes me want to cry.
Her voice is just amazing !
子供の頃は良いメロディだなぁとただ聞いていたけど大人になりこの歌に込められた深い意味や願いを知り、とても心に沁みて聴くたびに切なさが溢れて涙が流れる(;_;)
I wish Japanese culture and atrs were more widely spread.... this is just heavenly.
I suppose this would be Japanese but not typical, i'm pretty sure this is Okinawan
221Dw You can see the vocals are even very distinctive. It has nothing to do with enka ubiquitous vibrato and other japanese singing styles.
Piotr T. Shima uta is a band, the booms song who are from and based on main land Japan. they made this song being inspired from Okinawan music and culture. although I like it better rimi sings it sad and beautiful song

I found this song on an aquascaper video a few days ago.... but Rimi's voice is hainting - I've been listening to this a lot of her other songs these last few days... the voice and music is so beautiful - so are the meanings of the lyrics! :D Now I just have to live with the fact that it took my 28 years to "discover" this amazing musicstyle!
+BlueCoffeeDK hello, I thought actually this song was made bu alfeedo casero
omg.. we watched the same video! this song is lifting my mood.
+BlueCoffeeDK same aquascape video brought me here ..haha
No it was made by "The Boom"
I miss my days on Okinawa....love this song!
the island song
As the flower of Tiger's Claw blooms here and there
they called wind and storm has come
Repeated sorrow is like waves coming and going to this island
In the forest of sugarcane I met you
Under sugarcane field I parted you forever
Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds
Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my tears
As the flower of Tiger's Claw is gone, only small waves ripple
My simple happiness was like a wave flower that blooms only for a short time
The friends who sang in the forest of sugarcane
I parted for ever Under sugarcane field
Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds
Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my love
My dear ocean, universe, god and life
let us keep this evening calm ocean forever
Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds
Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my tears
Oh the island song, catch the wind and cross over the ocean with birds
Oh the island song, catch the wind and deliver my love
A beautiful song, performed perfectly by a beautiful artist ❤
So beautiful and so sad at the same time... you can actually feel it in your skin.
すごい 涙 がでる
Wow! No hay mucho para decir, las sensaciones al escucharlo hablan por si solas, piel de gallina y ojos llorosos al escucharla...
Solo, sublime
hermosa canción

Every time when I listen this song, I feel so sad about the people of Okinawa who died in World War 2.
No japan in WW2 was evil
@@jordielninopolla750 war, in whatever the form, in whenever the period, at however it is conducted, for whatever the reason is evil. There is no justifying such unscrupulous violence or propagation of animosity.
The fact remains that the Okinawans were devastated by the battles that took place in their homes and their tales still haunt the minds of people now. Just as there can never be justifying the unbridled violence against the south east Asia and China in the hands of the Japanese during the sino-japanese wars and ww2.
It is important that we live on with these harrowing memories not as a means to encourage hatred, but as a stern lesson that war brings nothing but grief, pain, and destruction.
We are people. We are humanity. And how we conduct ourselves determine the level of progress and culture of our kind.
@@jordielninopolla750 Okinawa (Ryukyus) was invaded by the Japanese... Okinawans were brutalized at Imperial Japanese hands
This song always makes me cry :c
If it weren't for my love of Vocaloid, I would not have discovered this song.
Her voice is heavenly.
Bela música de okinawa, ilha onde meus avós e pais nasceram. Um dia visitarei.
she indeed a good singer gifted with a great voice.
Here the lyrics :
Deigo no hana ga saki kaze wo yobi arashi ga kita
Deigo ga sakimidare kaze wo yobi arasi ga kita
Kurikaesu kanashimi wa shima wataru namino you
Uuji no mori de deatta tomo yo uuji no shita de chiyo ni sayonara
* Shima uta yo kaze ni nori tori to tomo ni umi wo watare
Shima uta yo kaze ni nori todokete okure watashi no namida
Deigo no hana mo chiri sazanami ga yoseru dake
Sasayaka na shiawase wa utakata no nami no hana
Uuji no mori de utatta tomo yo uuji no shita de yachiyo no wakare
* Shima uta yo kaze ni nori tori to tomo ni umi wo watare
Shima uta yo kaze ni nori todokete okure watashi no ai wo
Umi yo uchuu yo kami yo inochi yo konomama towa ni yuunagi wo
* Shima uta yo kaze ni nori tori to tomo ni umi wo watare
Shima uta yo kaze ni nori todokete okure watashi no namida
* Shima uta yo kaze ni nori tori to tomo ni umi wo watare
Shima uta yo kaze ni nori todokete okure watashi no ai wo
lala lalalala lalalalala la lala lalalala lala lalala・・・
(refrain)
esta mal igual , gracial por el aporte igual
Mal porqué? En donde falla
Su voz por momentos parece un violín. Impresionante, son tan talentosos los japoneses.
El verdadero arte no tiene país, solo humanidad!!!!
excelente reflexión!
cerra el orto, comunista
@@AndresEvil no it's not...
literally a counter-cultural statement.
@@rnbpl lamentablemente los malos modales tampoco y encontramos maleducados por todos lados.

Haunting melody. Beautiful performance!
I have no idea what she's singing but it made me tear up. I love this.
Kaylee Rafol you better never know.
The writer of the song wanted to dedicate it to the victims and survivors of the war where 1/3 of the population of the city died while moving from cave to cave to hide. The lyrics mention: a storm arriving, being separated for 1000 years, commanding the island song to ride the wind with the birds to cross the sea to delivery their tears and their love, pleading to the sea, the universe, to God, to life for an eternal calm to remain
Wow. I have no words.
I just love her voice, she made my soul move
La música en si es un idioma universal !!!!
La voz es hermosísima, y ella canta con un japonés tan diáfano, firme y bello! Natsukawa Rimi es una dura!!

This is "Sanshin". It's Shamisen of Ryukyu (Okinawa).
Sanshin play with Tsume(bachi) made of the horns of the water buffalo.
She attach it to a first finger fingertip.
Great female vocalist!
Lo amé. Y realmente la historia de la canción es hermosa.
Okinawa is my forever home in my heart. This song is so great. Rimi, you are the bomb!
Love her voice, and she reminds me of a Lady I knew while on Okinawa during my tour of duty!
In contrast to its melodious beauty, this emotionally touching song was born, being inspired by a dreadful tragedy which occurred in the islands of Okinawa in Japan at the end of WWII in 1945. The Okinawa islands are situated farthest south in the Japanese Archipelago, and became the battlefields between Japan and USA. In the spring of 1945, the Japanese military fascist was desperate for the final counter-attacks, and ruthlessly exploited Okinawa as the defensive shield against the powerful USA forces which had advanced northward from Guam, and as the result of fierce battles, more than 90,000 non-combatant citizens were killed. Furthermore it must be memorized that many of the native casualties were ordered by the Japanese military to commit massive suicide, rather than surrender. This beautiful but sorrowful song is dedicated to the innocent deceased souls in Okinawa.
Beautiful...
she's perfect
Aquascape bring me here too LOL her voice is amazing !!!
