This is a song written by David G Lanoue based off of Issa’s Haiku.
.露の世は露の世ながらさりながら
tsuyu no yo wa tsuyu no yo nagara sari nagara
this world
is a dewdrop world
yes… but…
Thank you to my daughter for the performance and to David for permission to use the song.

LYRICS:
This world is a dewdrop world
Things pass, no, nothing lasts
A boy and a little girl
On a dewdrop
Tiny dewdrop
It’s a dewdrop world
He loves how she looks at him
She loves his shining skin
Hot sun burns away the pearls
Of the dewdrops
Tiny dewdrops
It’s a dewdrop world
A ring made of hard, cool stone
Tells her she’s not alone
They watch lazy smoke rings curl
On a dewdrop
That they can’t stop
Fading dewdrop world
