Summer 20

Left (Win).

蘆の屋のかりねの床のふしのまにみじかく明る夏の夜な夜な

ashi no ya no
karine no toko no
fushi no ma ni
mijikaku akuru
natsu no yonayona
Out cutting reeds,
Upon a fleeting bed
I lie; between one reed-knot and another,
So brief comes the dawn
Each passing night in summer.

うちなびくしげみが下のさゆり葉のしられぬほどにかよふ秋風

uchinabiku
shigemi ga shita no
sayuriba no
shirarenu hodo ni
kayou akikaze
Aflutter
Beneath the growth
Lilies,
Unknown
to all,
Are passed by an autumn breeze.
