Noh play “Sumida-gawa River”

I want to convey the power of Noh ~ Embrace of my mother At that time, something that impresses my heart ~
Pass on the Noh Way of Embracing — Mother's love, deeply seated in the heart —

This is on the banks of the Sumida River in Tokyo hundreds of years ago. Today, it is crowded with people who board the ferry at Dainenbutsu.

A woman who is indignant appears there. He asked for the whereabouts of his only son who had been kidnapped, and arrived all the way from Kyoto. It was the end of a long journey that I walked while expressing the crazy feelings of being robbed of my child with the art of going eastward. Eventually, on the ferry, she hears that a boy, who was taken by a merchant, had reached the end of his non-work on this riverbank just a year ago. Now, a lot of people are gathering in front of the mound on the opposite bank and mourning.
Then the woman changes her complexion and asks the captain about the boy in quick succession. Around the age of a boy, his name, his father's name ... Finally, he called himself "I am the mother of the child."
What I saw earlier when the Sumida River in spring and the mother of pain chanted "Namu Amida Butsu" ...
