Keiun

Keiun (慶雲), also known as Kyōun, was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") following Taihō and preceding Wadō. The period spanned the years from May 704 through January 708. The reigning emperors were Mommu-tennō (文武天皇) and Gemmei-tennō (元明天皇).

Change of era

704 Keiun gannen (慶雲元年): The new era name was created to mark an event or series of events. The previous era ended and the new one commenced in Taihō 4, on the 7th day of the 5th month of 704.

Events of the Keiun era

697 (Keiun 4): Emperor Mommu dies, but his son and heir was deemed too young to receive the succession (senso). Instead, the mother of the heir formally accedes to the throne (sokui) as Empress Gemmei until her son would grow mature enough to accept senso and sokui.

July 18, 707 (Keiun 4, 15th day of the 6th month): Genmei is enthroned at the age of 48.

707 (Keiun 4): Deposits of copper was reported to have been found in Musashi province in the region which includes modern day Tokyo.

708 (Keiun 5):, The era name was about to be changed to mark the accession of Empress Gemmei; but the choice of Wadō as the new nengō for this new reign became a way to mark the welcome discovery of copper in the Chichibu District of what is now Saitama Prefecture. The Japanese word for copper is dō (銅); and since this was indigenous copper, the "wa" (the ancient Chinese term for Japan) could be combined with the "dō" (copper) to create a new composite term — "wadō" — meaning "Japanese copper."

You Take My Breath Away

Ohh...ohhh take it take it all away
ohh...ohhh take my breath away
ohh...ohhh you take my breath away
Look into my eyes and you'll see I'm the only one.
You've captured my love, stolen my heart,
changed my life.
Every time you make a move you destroy my mind.
And the way you touch I lose control and shiver deep inside.
You take my breath away
You can reduce me to tears with a single sigh
(please don't cry anymore)
every breath that you take, any sound that you make is a whisper in my ear
I could give up all my life for just one kiss
I would surly die, if you dismissed me from your love
You take my breath away
So please don't go
Don't leave me here all by myself
I get ever so lonely from time to time
I will find you anywhere you go
I'll be right behind you
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you that you just take my breath away
I will find you anywhere you go...ohhh
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you when I found you
I love you.
