青い麦
伊藤咲子 Lyrics

The song "青い麦" by 伊藤咲子 tells a story of two young individuals who fell in love amidst the backdrop of high school life. The first verse describes their first encounter and their first kiss, which was natural despite the nervousness they both felt. The chorus expresses the singer's desire to scream out their love for each other, declaring that they love each other more than anyone else. The second verse talks about how their love is unstoppable and how they want to create their own world, just the two of them. They constantly talk and embrace each other, and the singer realizes that this is what love feels like.

The song is nostalgic in its tone and tells a coming-of-age story. It perfectly encapsulates the feeling of first love and how it feels like a new world opening up for you. The theme of young love and the innocence that comes with it make this song a favorite for many listeners. The iconic line, "二人は青い麦 愛にめざめた" (Futari wa aoi mugi ai ni mezameta), is often used in Japanese culture to refer to young love.
