“Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,
Across the spring sky,
As far as the eye can see.
Is it mist, or clouds?
Fragrant in the air.
Come now, come now,
Let’s go and see them.”
“Sakura, Sakura” is a traditional Japanese folk song for spring and the transient nature of cherry blossoms: blooming for a short time, and then leaving us with only a lingering memory of their beauty.
