Mura matsuri

Mura no chinjyu no kamisama no
Kyou wa medetai omatsuribi
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Asa kara kikoeru fue taiko

Toshi mo hounen mansaku de
Mura wa soude no oomatsuri
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Yoru made nigiwau miya no mori

Osamaru miyo ni kamisama no
Megumi aoguya mura matsuri
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Kiitemo kokoro ga isami tatsu

Village festival

Today, God who protects our village,
A festive day to celebrate
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
I can hear the sound of a whistle and drums

There was a lot of harvest this year,
so everyone in the village gathered to make a big festival.
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
God’s company was busy until late at night.

A big festival that praises
the grace of God in a stable era.
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Don don hyarara, Don hyarara
Just listening to my heart is courageous.

Muramatsuri” is a festival held in autumn in various parts of Japan to thank the gods of the land for a good harvest of agriculture (mainly rice) and to pray for a bountiful harvest the following year.

Japanese gods are called “Yaoyorozunokami” (eight million gods), and they are found in various places such as rice paddies, fields, mountains, oceans, kamado (a place where fire is handled), and so on. Although usually invisible, people give thanks to the gods by inviting them to their homes and holding festivals.

At that time, people sing, dance, and enjoy themselves with the gods using a flute called fue and a drum called taiko.

The drums make a “don” sound and the flutes make a “hyarara” sound.

After the autumn festival, the villagers begin to prepare for winter.
