On a journey, ill:
my dream goes wandering
over withered fields.

Basho

Of late the nights
are dawning
plum-blossom white.

Buson

The running stream
is cool--the pebbles
underfoot.

Chiboku

As I watch the moon
shining on pain's myriad paths,
I know I am not
alone involved in Autumn.

Oe no Chisato

I go out of the darkness
onto a road of darkness
lit only by the far off
moon on the edge of the mountains.

Izumi

In the Autumn mountains
the colored leaves are falling.
If I could hold them back
I could still see her.

Hitomaro

This is not the moon,
nor is this the spring,
of other springs,
and I alone
am still the same.

Narahira

The flowers whirl away
in the wind like snow.
The thing that falls away
is myself.

the priest Kintsune

.gy.

tu'e

le ninbistcima
lei blabi mi mipri .i
ganai mi lebna
djica gi go facki fi
pale xrula gi funca

tu'u .i co'e zoigy.

The white chrysanthemum
is disguised by the first frost.
If i wanted to pick one
I could find it only by chance.

Oshikochi no Mitsune

tu'e

mo'izo'a mi
ku slabu xu prenu .i

.ico'e zoigy.

Someone passes,
and while I wonder
if it is he,
the midnight moon
is covered with clouds.

Murasaki

gy.

tu'e

co'a lunsa fa

'The hanging raindrops
have not dried from the needles
of the fir forest
before the evening mist
of Autumn rises.'

the monk Jakuren

gy.

(Basho:

Summer grass. After
soldiers' quests so glorious,
this quiet answer.)

''cisysrasu .i
