願い事(ねがいごと)Wishes
Making a Wish for Tanabata
(Star Festival - July 7th)
In present-day Japan, people generally celebrate this day by writing wishes, sometimes in the form of poetry, on tanzaku (短冊 tanzaku), small pieces of paper, and hanging them on bamboo, sometimes with other decorations. (Wikipedia)
願い事(ねがいごと)
ギターがじょうずになりますように
もっとにほんごがじょうずになりますように
ニンテンドーの社長に会えますように
みんながけんこうでありますように
日本でたくさんの友だちができますように
もっと車のうんてんがじょうずになりますように
僕の笑いを皆で分かち合えますように
いつもしあわせでありますように
みんながしあわせでありますように
おかねがもっともらえますように
まあかすくんがはやくげんきになりますように
家族全員が健康で仲良く暮らせますように

Song - たなばたさま Tanabatasama
July 7th is Tanabata (Star Festival). Enjoy the Japanese famous tanabata song, たなばたさま Tanabatasama with a variety of versions. My favourite version is the last one.
Please don't forget to watch Vega (Orihime) and Altair (Ushikai/Hikoboshi) on July 7th. Enjoy stargazing!

The lyrics for the song, Tanabatasama.
のきばに ゆれる And swaying at the eaves
おほしさま きらきら Stars are twinkling
きん ぎん すなご Like gold and silver sands
ごしきの たんざく On colorful papers
わたしが かいた I wrote my wishes
おほしさま きらきら Stars are twinkling
そらから みてる And gazing at me from the sky
Make a Wish
