Haijins Weigh-In

[Guest guest]

once, far over the breakers,

i caught a glimpse

of a white bird

and fell in love

with this dream which obsesses me.

 

ara iso ni

tada hito-me mishi

shiroki tori

hatsu koi no kimi

waga yume wa kare

 

 

as i watch the moon

shining on pain's myriad paths

i know i am not

alone involved in autumn

 

tsuki mire ba

chiji ni mono koso

kanashi mi hititsu no

akin ni wa aranedo

 

 

others may forget you,

but not i. i am haunted

by your beautiful ghost

 

hito wa isa

omoi yamu tomo

tama kazura

kage ni mie tsutsu

wasuraenu ba mo

 

 

i picked an azalea

and brought it home

now when i contemplate it

in its crimson dye

i see the color

of my lover's robe

 

iwa tsutuji

orimote zo miru

seka ga kishi

kurendai some no

iro ni nitareba

 

 

the first dawn comes

with a clear bright flicker and

you must go. in the early morning

we help each other to dress

trembling with sorrow

 

shinonome no

hogara - hogaran to

ake yukeba

ono ga kinu - ginu

naru zo banashiku

 

 

i cannot go to you

even in dreams

for in my breast

the skies are overcast

and my mind is clouded

 

yuki yaranu

yumrjumi madou

damoto si wa

amatsu sora nak

tsuyu zo aki keru

 

 

 

LoveAlways,

 

Mazie
