Spring 4

Left.

花の香のかすめる月にあくがれて夢もさだかに見えぬ比かな

hana no ka no
kasumeru tsuki ni
akugarete
yume mo sadaka ni
mienu
koro kana
The blossoms’ scent
Befogs the moon;
Thus lost,
Certain it is that dreams
Will not come now, perhaps…

Right (Win)

春の夜は月の桂もにほふ覧光に梅の色はまがひぬ

haru no yo wa
tsuki no katsura mo
niouran
hikari ni ume no
iro wa magainu
On a night in springtime
The moon’s silver trees, too,
Must give out their fragrance;
In such light the plums’
Hues can be mistaken.
