Source : Dittrich, Rudolf, Nippon Gakufu first and seconde serie, Breitkopf and Härtel, Leipzig, 1894-1895 History ?Jizuki-Uta? is a work song. According to Rudolf Dittrich, it might be sung by a team of men driving piles. However, the text shows that the song is about rice cultivation. Dittrich provides a beautiful illustration (reproduced on this page) of men driving piles.
