Sakura, Sakura
Yayoi no sora wa
Miwatasu kagiri
Kasumi ka kumo ka
Nioi zo izuru
Izaya, Izaya
Mi ni yu kan

This is another song my Mom sang to me. I sang it to her at my Senior Recital when she was alive, and again at her funeral. I tell this same story and sing the song in a vlog posted several years ago.

This is very sad, again i can not understand it but any song sung at a funeral holds that sadness it will never leave and the next persona to read it wil surely catch that feeling.
Very emotive well done!

If you read the translation...
...at the link I provided in the AN, you will see the words are not sad. I sang it as a tribute to my Mom at her funeral, but the words are not sad. It is not normally sung at funerals, just because it was a special song between my Mom and me.
