Name: Ringo Oiwake
Duration: P00H06M45S
Description: An old pop standard of Japan actually, Herbie Hancock performed it, Cathy learned it in '85 on her first visit of many to Japan. We were told that it reflected in the old warring days, when people had to sell their children for the rest of the family to survive...and this song brought in the image of a young boy and girl who were in love, and had to be separated in this way.

Ringo no hanabira ga

Tsukiyo ni tsukiyo ni

Tsugaru musume wa naita to sa
Tsurai wakare wo naita to sa
Ringo no hanabira ga
Kaze ni chitta yo na
