Kojo no Tsuki ( The Moon over the Ruined Castle)
Kōjō no Tsuki (荒城の月) is one of the most famous Japanese songs ever made. Rentarō Taki composed it in 1901. The lyrics were written by Bansui Doi, who came from Sendai, the largest city in the Tōhoku Region. The lyric of the song was inspired by the ruins of Aoba Castle and Aizuwakamatsu Castle, in Fukushima Prefecture. This video is dedicated in memory of David Wong (19542011). He was my YouTube friend who suddenly died two years ago. I called him Chinese samurai, and that made him smile. He said me, It kind of make me laugh, that I had been called samurai; I am not Japanese, but I always respect the codes they follow, I have to say I just try to be good, far from respectable David, we will never forget you. Sleep well, buddy. For me, you are a role model as a man: to live for something, to die for something Sincerely, Teisuka My memorial article about David: The memorial video made by Michikochan: w
