The lyrics to Asadoya Yunta originated from a story where a beautiful lady from Taketomi Island, known as Asato Kuyama (安里クヤマ) (1722-1799), received a wedding proposal from a Ryukyuan government official who came from another island. In one version of the story, the woman bravely rejects the proposal as she felt as if marrying a local man from her island would provide a better life than to become a mistress of this official. In another version, Kuyama ends up marrying him. The first version is popular in the Okinawa Islands whereas the latter version is popular in Taketomi.
