"No ni Saku Hana no Yō ni" (野に咲く花のように) is a single released by Gackt on February 7, 2007. It peaked at third place on the Oricon weekly chart and charted for eleven weeks.
The song, translated "Like a Wild Flower", was first performed on February 28, 2006, when Gackt appeared at the graduation of the Maiko High School in Hyōgo Prefecture, because of a promise he gave to a student. He received a letter by student who was worried that his school's department would shut down due to lack of student interest. Their division managed to survive and Gackt wrote the song and performed it at that year's graduation ceremony in honor of their perseverance. Since then he continued to make surprise appearances in high school graduation ceremonies, where encourage students to follow their dreams, and performs the song.
