World Haiku Series 2019 (207)

Haiku by Arina Abmaeba

 

A drop from the sky

Broke the calm

In my bowl

 

空からの一滴

静けさを破った

私のボウルに

 

Flowers on the window

Fluffy leaves are

Like your cheeks

 

窓の花

ふわふわした葉は

あなたの頬のよう

 

Silver pancake

Jumped on black water

Stars are footprints

 

銀色のパンケーキ

黒い水に跳んだ

星は足跡

 

A curious fly

Is walking on a reed

It’s going to rain

 

好奇心の強いハエ

葦の上を歩いている

雨が降りそう

 

The Sunset

A petal fell on the mat –

Sakura is blooming

 

日没

花びらがマットの上に落ちた-

さくらが咲いている

 

A petrified frog

under a wild strawberry leaf

A hot morning

 

石化したカエル

野生のイチゴの葉の下

暑い朝

 

Transparent beads

have grown on every blade of grass

The morning freshness

 

透明なしずく

草のすべての葉に生えた

朝の新鮮さ

 

A little yellow island

in a rice field –

the wind has stolen the hat

 

小さな黄色い島

田んぼの中

風が帽子を盗んだ

 

A dragonfly is spinning

over the clear surface of water

The silence is ringing

 

トンボが回転している

澄んだ水面上

沈黙が輪になっている

 

Like the people on Earth

the dust appeared on a carpet

And together they became one

 

地球上の人々のように

ほこりがカーペットに現れた

そして一緒に一つになった

 

— Translated by Hidenori Hiruta
