Sochang Castle(Kokura Castle)

Kinsley Lee

The flowing river wraps around Kokura Castle like'n oldén days, 
And ownerless place, the croaking crow welcomes when th'guest're approaching.
Cheonsugak(Tenshugaku)   has lost it's grandeur, and it's faded away the splendid days, 
Yet, it's become a rest-place where cicadas' crying and dragonflies' dancing.

      from Nobunaga to Yoshimune
      from warlords to reformists
      the era of shogunate military prowess
      to a Japan, with a stunted army
      yet once more, change has began
      old castles, watch
      as nature's music and light serenades
      a new generation, that have forgotten
      will soon remember, that culture
      of Busho warrior as their inheritance
      and the horrors of battle, it promises
      for future generations...
