The Peach Boy in Japanese. Momotaro (the Peach Boy) came from a peach, led three animals to subjugate the terrible oni, and returned victorious!

But did you know there was a song? Here is the traditional Japanese song.

Yumi sang it with one change from the original (an accident!). The original version has Momotaro saying やりましょう instead of あげましょう for "I will give...".

やる is used when giving food to animals. あげる is used for giving something to an equal or above. However, more and more people use あげる when feeding their pets.
