Waterfalls 滝
谷川やおちくる滝のしらいとを水のあやには織るにやあるらん
| tanikawa ya ochikuru taki no shira’ito o mizu no aya ni wa oru ni ya aruran | From a stream within the valley Comes tumbling a cataract of White threads: A motley pattern of water Do they seem to weave? |

Stones 石
おく山の人もかよはぬ谷川にせぜの石ばしたれわたしけん
| okuyama no hito mo kayowanu tanikawa ni seze no ishibashi tare watashiken | Deep within the mountains, where Folk never go, lies A stream within a valley, The rapids spanned by a bridge of stones, But who might it be that built it? |

In cleansing Semi Stream’s Pure rapids For my Lord’s long life I will ever pray! |
