Sore Ga Daiji

The song 'Sore Ga Daiji' by Daijiman Brothers Band is a powerful anthem of resilience and perseverance. The repeated phrases 'Makenai koto' (Don't give up), 'Nagedasanai koto' (Don't throw it away), 'Nigedasanai koto' (Don't run away), and 'Shinjinuku koto' (Believe) form the core message of the song. These lines emphasize the importance of staying strong and believing in oneself, even when times are tough. The lyrics suggest that the most important thing ('Sore ga ichiban daiji') is to hold on to these principles, especially when one feels like giving up.

The song also touches on the value of life and the beauty of simplicity. Lines like 'Kouka na boseki wo tateru yori, Yasukutemo ikiru hou ga subarashii' (Rather than building an expensive grave, living simply is more wonderful) and 'Kouka na nitto wo ageru yori, Heta demo te de anda hou ga utsukushii' (Rather than giving an expensive gift, something handmade, even if clumsy, is more beautiful) highlight the idea that true value lies in the simple, genuine aspects of life. This perspective encourages listeners to appreciate the small, meaningful moments and gestures that make life beautiful.

The song also delves into the theme of longing and the pain of separation. The lines 'Koko ni anata ga inai no ga sabishii no ja nakute, Koko ni anata ga inai to omou koto ga sabishii' (It's not that it's lonely because you're not here, it's lonely because I think you're not here) express a deep sense of yearning and the emotional struggle of missing someone. Despite this, the song maintains a hopeful tone, suggesting that as long as one continues to live and believe, there is always a chance for reunion and healing. The recurring message is clear: resilience, belief, and appreciating life's simple beauties are the keys to overcoming life's challenges.
