Readers of this blog "Chuo-ku Tourism Association correspondent blog" are probably
Those who live or work in Chuo-ku, or in Chuo-ku
I think most people are involved in some way.
Do you know "ward song (my town)" of Chuo-ku?
It was created in March 1987 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the central ward system.
From May 15 to July 15 of the previous year, suitable for the symbol of the ward
We solicited lyrics, and from the submitted works (81 entries), Mr. Tadao Araki
The work was selected. This is arranged by the lyricist Tokiko Iwatani.
Composer Naozumi Yamamoto made a song and "Kuku Uta" was completed.
By the way, speaking of Naozumi Yamamoto, the CM of "Large is a good thing"
I think it's the same generation as me (laughs).
You can listen to ward songs on the homepage of Chuo-ku in video.
It is interesting that the song is flowing in the background of the scenery in the city.

Ward song

Sunlight in the eastern sky
The gorgeousness of Tokyo
The town of kana, my town
Oedo's culture
The dream of the future is born here
Vigorous and lively
My town is alive, Chuo-ku
2
There are flowing rivers and seas
Abundance that continues to the world
The town I built, my town.
A place where power and wisdom can be shared
All the paths begin here
A healthy and healthy person lives
A healthy town, Chuo-ku

The waves of the moon
The wind of the season is also beautiful.
The town of living, my town
A place where you can interact with your heart
The good work gathers here
Love always has love
My town with love Oh, Chuo-ku
