【TUTORIAL】 The Garden of Words 「言の葉の庭」: A Rainy Morning ~Main Title~ (Piano Cover) 「ピアノカバー」

なるかみの, すこしとよみて,
さしくもり,
あめもふらぬか,
きみをとどめむ

A faint clap of thunder,
Clouded skies,
Perhaps rain will come.
If so, will you stay here with me?

– Yukino Yukari
Man’yōshū, Book 11, verse 2,513

なるかみの,すこしとよみて,
ふらずとも,
われはとまらむ,
いもしとどめば

A faint clap of thunder,
Even if rain comes or not,
I will stay here,
Together with you.

– Akizuki Takao
Man’yōshū, Book 11, verse 2,514

While listening and practising, it might be better to switch to speakers instead. Hope the tutorial helps those who are still learning (like me)! 🙂
