Ainoyamabushi - Ainoyamabushi

Japanese: 間の山節 - あいのやまぶし
Ainoyamabushi - Ainoyamabushi

This is a song that geisha (geisha girls) sang as a parlor song in the entertainment district of Ise City, Mie Prefecture. Its origin is unknown, but there is a hauta (traditional folk song) from the late Edo period called "Miya Mairi" (a shrine visit) with lyrics like "At Ise, Ujibashi Naiku Geku (naiku ugeku), Miyasuzume (miyasuzume) of the 80 sub-shrines, Osugidama and Ainoyama, the road continues to Shima-san, Kon-san, Hanairo-san and Iwakata-san, At Futamigaura, Asama-yama, Oumuseki, Isobe Bikuni, and Daidai Kagura, these are also thrown." The name "Ama no Yamabushi" was born when the "Miya Mairi" was sung enthusiastically by street performers "Osugi, Otama" (all street performers are called by this name) who set up huts in the mountains between the outer and inner shrines. This later spread to other provinces, and the Iyo-style version became "Iyobushi."

Japanese:

三重県伊勢(いせ)市の花柳界で、芸妓(げいぎ)たちがお座敷唄(うた)として歌ってきた唄。源流は不明であるが、江戸時代後期の端唄(はうた)に、『宮参り』があり、「伊勢に宇治橋内宮外宮(ないくうげくう) 八十末社の宮雀(みやすずめ) お杉お玉に相の山から 島さん紺さん花色さん 岩方さんへは道続き 二見浦(ふたみがうら)には朝熊山(あさまやま) 鸚鵡石(おうむせき) 磯辺比丘尼(いそべびくに)だか 太々神楽(だいだいかぐら)にこれらもし 投げさんせ」といった歌詞のものであった。その『宮参り』が、外宮から内宮へ通じる間の山に小屋掛けした大道芸人たちの「お杉、お玉」(どの大道芸人もこの名でよばれる)らによって盛んに歌われるに及んで、『間の山節』の名が生まれた。そしてこれがのち諸国へ広まって、伊予化したものが『伊予節』となった。
