Poem (translated by John Tedford)

Maeuta:

Last Autumn
at the time of the
turning of the maple leaves,
counting the cycles
of the moon,
days pass upon days,
waiting --
fruitless task.
Intermittent
rain showers fall
incessantly.
Even the evergreen color of
the pine trees, like youthful beauty,
must fade from longing.
The sleeves of my
kimono are worn with age.

TEGOTO

Atouta:

The rain has stopped
Sounds of crickets pervade
the stillness of the autumn night;
the midnight bell
pierces the quiet.
I lie in bed alone.
A dream unrealized
and yet I dream still,
longing for days long past
when once was love and innocence.
こぞの秋、
散りし梢はもみぢして、
いま、
はた峰に有明の
