A song that gently stays by your side when your heart trembles. "Omamori Uta" (translated as Amulet Song or A Song That Protects) was written by Yutaka Oyama in the wake of the Great East Japan Earthquake. It was born from a quiet wish-to be something that gently reaches someone's heart, like softly placing a hand into the waters of their quiet inlet and letting words float toward their depths. The song speaks to the difficulty of truly smiling in times of hardship, the weight of unspoken sadness, and the loneliness that can feel all too real. Yet, it also reminds us that through continued connection and gentle presence, a path toward healing may be found. The recurring line, "I'm living with you, always", carries a profound message of comfort-that we are never truly alone, even when it feels that way. With its poetic language and compassionate tone, the song embraces not only sorrow, but also the beauty of striving toward ideals, and the possibility of blooming like a flower when we become a light or water for someone else. "Omamori Uta" is a song that hopes to simply be there-for whenever someone needs it most. A quiet guardian. A song-shaped amulet.
