一念は平和来たれと軍事侵攻さるるウクライナへの祈り
my heart is
filled with prayers for
peace in Ukraine
being invaded by Russian
military force
※「ひまわり」はウクライナの国花です。
The sunflower is the national flower of Ukraine.
2
にはか掻き曇り暗澹たる世界 眼前(まさき)を揺らし立ちあらはるる
all of a sudden
the air becomes leaden
and then
the dark world appears
shaking before my eyes
3
凄まじき地獄の炎風吹きし如こぼたれしビル噴煙となる
as if
terrible hellfire winds
blowing up…
thick smoke rising
from the broken buildings
4
極寒の道難のがれポーランドへと歩むひと延々累々
extreme coldness…
people walk endlessly
along the road
to neighbouring Poland
to escape danger
5
独(ひと)りのみ統べ治むるが彼の国か科学進むも人閉ざしをり
is that country
to be ruled by only one?
despite
the scientific advances
people are still closed off
6
核かざすロシアの攻めにおびえ様々おもふ2022年
2022…
the year we think about threats
against that country
attacking with nuclear weapons
being held up over its head
7
彼の裡の業の円環めぐりめぐり一つ所業にあらはるべし
his inner karma
circling and circling
finally unites
to one and leads him
to such behaviour
8
掟をやぶる侵攻に遮二無二つけし理(ことわり)を誰(た)れぞしるらむ
who will ever
understand the reason
why he recklessly
decided to invade
breaking the law?
9
一丸の業の塊(かたまり)解かれえず命の川は狭(せ)になりゆかむ
mass
lump of karma cannot be
unravelled
the flow of life-river will
become narrower
10
映像に影する彼はひとり座す 遠の側近 何の所以か
he is
shown in the video
sitting alone
why is his brain trust
apart from him?
