雪中花
伍代夏子 Lyrics

The lyrics of 雪中花 by 伍代夏子 poetically describe the enduring strength and resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and the importance of never forgetting one's roots and the lessons taught by those who came before us. The opening lines speak of seagulls soaring in the wind, and waves crashing against the rocky cliffs of Echizen Cape, the singer's homeland. The constant motion and turmoil of nature contrast with the stillness and beauty of a snow-covered flower, which symbolizes the singer's determination to thrive and flourish even in the midst of harsh conditions. The image of a small mother's gentle face swaying in the wind, and the memory of her words urging the singer to find joy in work, provide a source of comfort and inspiration.

The chorus expresses a sense of hope and optimism, even in the face of personal hardship and setbacks. The singer acknowledges that happiness may not always be easy to come by, but remains steadfast in her belief that brighter days lie ahead. The closing lines paint a picture of the sun breaking through the clouds to illuminate the picturesque Echizen Cape and the gentle waves, and the singer promising to keep striving and blooming like the snow-covered flower.
