Chaotic Mellow Sound with a Blend of Traditional Japanese Instruments
On January 7th, the Festival of People (Jinjitsu), a special day in Japan, it is customary to eat Nanakusa Gayu (Seven Herb Rice Porridge). On this day, people chop and cook the seven spring herbs-Seri, Nazuna, Gogyo, Hakobera, Hotokenoza, Suzuna, and Suzushiro-to pray for health and ward off illness.
This piece of music expresses the prayers and the unique meanings imbued in each of the seven herbs through sound. May you feel the breath of life and healing brought by the seven herbs and enjoy the arrival of spring.
Below are the symbolic meanings of the seven spring herbs:
Seri (Japanese parsley): To triumph in competition
Nazuna (Shepherd’s purse): To cleanse impurities with a gentle touch
Gogyo (Cudweed): Symbolizing the body of Buddha
Hakobera (Chickweed): Representing prosperity
Hotokenoza (Nipplewort): The Buddha’s seat, symbolizing peace and comfort
Suzuna (Turnip): The bell that calls the divine
Suzushiro (Daikon radish): Pure white, free from impurities
↓English translation↓
The wind of January gently brushes my cheeks
On this day, marked by the Festival of Seven Herbs
Chosen grasses and flowers begin to whisper
Wishing for health and happiness for all
The scent of Seri draws me near
A guiding light to triumph in the fight
The gentle touch of Nazuna soothes
Cleansing impurities, bringing peace to the heart
The seven herbs carry drops of fortune
Their warmth fills the body with care
Pure white light shines upon the future
Aiding the cycle of health and beauty
Gogyo guards the path of words
A sacred figure silently protecting
Hakobera spreads the circle of prosperity
Imbuing hidden strength within
The bell of Suzuna softly resonates
Suzushiro paints a pure white glow
Hotokenoza quietly watches over
Gentle melodies wrap the heart
The light of Jinjitsu awakens life’s breath
Even beneath the snow, life endures
Spring’s new grasses reveal the spirit of harmony
Carrying forward the wishes of generations
A turning point at the year’s beginning
Tiny grasses connect bonds of fate
The seven herbs weave threads of life
Weaving a future that shines ever bright
The seven herbs play a melody of hope
A song that prays for health and joy
The warm light leading to tomorrow
Is the star of hope that ties all life
A pure wind softly passes through
Seven prayers rise to the heavens
The power of grasses that paint the seasons
Announcing the start of new days
