Generaledit
The song was composed for the Nemu Popular Festival '70 (合歓ポピュラーフェスティバル'70, nemu popyurâ fesutibaru '70) that took place in Shima, Mie in 1970. The song appeared on the popular single recordTakeda no komoriuta [jp] (竹田の子守唄) released by the folk group Akaitori [jp] (赤い鳥) on February 5, 1971, becoming nationally known. In September 1973, Sumiko Yamagata released a reprise of the song in the album Ano hi no koto wa (あの日のことは).
Shoji Hashimoto, the editor of the publishing house Kyouiku Geijutsu-sha [jp], decided to include the song in a choir textbook, causing it to be sung by choirs across Japan. By the second half of the 1970s, most people in Japan were familiar with the song.
Megumi Yokota once sang this song at a school competition.
