| To-night on Sumi-no-ye beach |
|
|
| O'ercome with pity for this world |
|
|
| We met but for a moment, and |
|
|
| The Rain, which fell from passing showers |
|
|
| The Moon that shone the whole night through |
|
|
| I've seen thee but a few short hours |
|
|
| This night the cheerless autumn moon |
|
|
| The Ailments of advancing years |
|
|
| It was a white chrysanthemum |
|
|
| I'm sleeping all alone, and hear |
|
|
