Sahyōe no suke sadafumi uta’awase 2

The Middle of Spring

Left (Win)

春はなほわれにてしりぬはなざかりこころのどけき人はあらじな

haru wa nao
ware nite shirinu
hanazakari
kokoro nodokeki
hito wa araji na
That spring endures
I know well;
The profusion of blossom means
A peaceful heart has
No one at all…

Right

はかなくてはるひとつきはくれにけりはなのさかりはすぎがてにせよ

hakanakute
haru hitotsuki wa
kurenikeri
hana no sakari wa
sugigate ni seyo
The brief
First month of spring
Has reached its eve;
O, to make the blossoms’ profusion
Impossible to pass away!
