Background[]

"Iroha Uta" is a song featuring Kagamine Rin by Ginsaku. On February 12, just one day after the song is uploaded, it ranked first in the Weekly VOCALOID Ranking. It reached the Niconico Hall of Fame on February 16, 2009 (5 days after it was uploaded) and reached one million views on November 20, 2010.

This song uses the "Iroha", an old Japanese poem famous for its perfect pangram, containing each character of the Japanese syllabary only once. The poem was used as an ordering for the syllabary in old Japan.

There are various interpretations to the song, one being that it tells a story of a servant and a master, the servant being willing to do and be anything the master commands. Another common interpretation would be the song talks about a couple of lovers.

Japanese (日本語歌詞) Romaji (ローマ字)
アナタガ望ムノナラバ anata ga nozomu no naraba
犬ノヤウニ従順ニ inu no you ni juujun ni
紐ニ縄ニ鎖ニ himo ni nawa ni kusari ni
