This song was created in September 1859 to celebrate Kiyoshige Okayasu’s opening. The song was named “Kimi (Kisan) no Niwa” after the name of Nagauta master Kisaburo Okayasu. Since this year was the year of the year, the lyrics say, “This year of harvest is the year of the year of the year.” Also, the phrase “Watamashi with harvested ears” indicates that it has moved to a new house (“Watamashi” means relocation). The first half of the song, from the beginning of the song to the kototeji aigata, was composed by Katsuzaburo Kineya II, and the second half, from “Kore wa Kashikoki Kimigayo ni” to Dankiri, was composed by Shojiro Kineya III. The first half takes on the story of the Kogaku from the Tale of the Heike, and is elegant in keeping with the times, while the second half completely changes, and takes on the themes of the outposts and autumn grass, and is light and chic in its care, making it rich in variety. The song begins with the first part of the three-down koto style, and becomes “Oshika Naku.” The hand of Hajikinagashi that follows is said to be an expression of the sound of a deer’s cry, and the following music is composed in the style of a koto song, and the hand of “Okayasu Kinuta” is used. It is said that the short interlude in “Awasu Tone no Fuechikuya” is an onomatopoeia of a flute. The “Soufukoi” section of the song is also used in the Geza music for the play. The second half, “Visiting Ware”, uses an Edo-style ondo melody. It skillfully incorporates the melodies of sugagaki and “dark night” to express the scenery of the outskirts. The atmosphere changes with “Yonen”, which celebrates the opening of the floor and concludes the song.The story of Iso Kineya, the mother of the seventh generation Katsuzaburo Kineya[要出典]According to , when publishing the original editions of the joint works of these two, “Iris Yukata” and “Kisan no Niwa”, it was decided that “Iris Yukata” would be published as composed by Shojiro Kineya, and “Kisan no Niwa” would be composed by Katsuzaburo Kineya.
