The Japanese admired this strength of spirit, and adopted this musical classic as part of their own, end of the year holiday season tradition, in the same spirit of renewal and hope, performed yearly.
A spark of fire from heaven, Daughter from Elysium, Drunk with fire we dare to enter, Holy One, inside your shrine. Your magic power binds together, What we by custom wrench apart, All men will emerge as brothers, Where you rest your gentle wings....
Wishing everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and Holiday Season, from your SOS blogger.
