Hear the wind
Blow from the beyond
Hear the voice of the earth
Time falls like a drizzle
On our crying forests and shores
The starry blue ocean
Is a cradle
Remember the eternal memory
Here to sing the song of Lives
Heaven will bloom on the earth
“I Am Who I Am”
Whispers the breeze
Surfing the inner breath
Be the sky and feel the siblings
No need to be scared
A promised rainbow of tears
Appears
Above our old beach
Soaked in songs
Keep the light
And brighten the corner
Heaven will bloom on the earth
The starry blue ocean
Is a cradle
Remember the eternal memory
Here to sing the song of Lives
Heaven shall bloom on the earth

"Garuda Ryukyu"
~The sound of the sanshin echoes across the equator to the future~
The title track "Garuda Ryukyu" was created in collaboration with Indonesia's largest creative eisa group, U-maku Eisa Shinka Indonesia, to commemorate the 18th anniversary of its establishment, and received high acclaim and coverage in the Indonesian media.
The album includes "PACIFIC," which depicts Okinawan immigrants to the world, "Heavenly Rainbow" and "Starry Blue," which sing of our precious lives, "Arirang" in Korean and Okinawan, "Kijimuna goes to Hawaii," which incorporates Hawaiian words, and " Eight Views of Ryukyu" which is based on a Ryukyuan Chinese poem. Also included a cover of "Shinkanucha", the theme song of Worldwide Eisa Festival 2011.
Rio INYAKU's first album "Ryukyu Revolution" charted as the top TuneCore J-POP album in Canada and Singapore, and his music has many fans overseas. His 2nd album "Garuda Ryukyu," released with great enthusiasm, is a new breath of Okinawan music nurtured through cross-cultural exchange.
