Every year on the third of March, Japan transforms into a sea of pink and peach blossoms for Hinamatsuri. Often called Girls' Day, this cherished festival is a time for families to come together and offer heartfelt prayers for their daughters’ wellbeing, success, and long-lasting happiness.
🌸Ureshii Hinamatsuri (Happy Doll’s Festival)
Light the candles in the lamps
Put the peach blossoms in place
The Quintet play the flute and drums
Let's enjoy a happy Doll's Day
The Imperial Prince and Princess
Side by side looking prim and proper
My married sister is very much like
One of the white-faced Court Ladies
The lamplight on the gold screen
It flickers with the spring breeze
Having drunk a little white liquor
The Left Guard is red in the face
In my best kimono and obi belt
I am allowed to dress up today
A happy spring day in March
There is nothing like Doll's Day
