Teiichi Okano

Teiichi Okano (Japanese: 岡野貞一 Okano Teiichi; 16 February 1878, Tottori, Tottori, Japan – 29 December 1941) was a Japanese composer.

Oborozuki yo (朧月夜; "Dark Moon Night") is a song composed by Teiichi Okano with lyrics by Tatsuyuki Takano [ja].

The song was written to pass down the Japanese landscape to posterity.

Then, the evening moon rises high and it is colored softly.

The lamps of a village, green of the forest, people who walk along a path between rice paddies, croaking of a frog and the sound of a temple bell everything is shrouded in mist on a hazy moonlit night.
