In morning of terraced rice fields, soft chills drift.
And, Season pass at a gallop here.
The crop was given to people.
The deep love was granted to them.
Every year in the long history.
It was a holy ceremony for our country.
Our Courtesy, Modest, Consideration, Wisdom, Dignity ・・・.
All of them were born from here.

"暮" (bo, or kureru). It is translated as evening, dusk, sunset, ending, etc.
This character is written by Kanzi, Semi-cursive script.
Etymology : Phono-semantic compound
phonetic : 莫 (is not) + semantic : 日 (the sun)
This form reminds me of the state that something ends in.
The opening, and the end.
Samsara. It never stops.
