Haiku by Vida Jalili in Iran

10 Haiku by Vida Jalili

Cold morning ...
Every violet is sunken
In his shadow

寒い朝
すべてのバイオレットが沈んでいる
彼の影に
 
A long night...
In the shade of cypress trees
The snow is also black

長い夜
ヒノキの木陰で
雪も黒い

The sound of crows
Heavier than last night's snow
On an old paddle

カラスの声
昨夜の雪より重い
古いパドルの上

cherry blossoms
foggy from yellow dust . . . 
old album

桜
黄砂から霧が発生
古いアルバム

Quarantine days ...
The scent of orange blossoms
Hidden in the smell of alcohol

検疫日
オレンジの花の香り
アルコールの匂いに隠される

on hollyhock stem
a bud is going to bloom
a flower is withering

タチアオイの茎に
つぼみが咲くところ
花が枯れている

The end of the harvest...
They came out of the fog
Singing owners

収穫の終わり
霧の中から出てきた
歌う所有者たち

Empty station
Is filled with the noise 
of sparrows

空の駅
騒音でいっぱい
スズメの

The sound of a train whistle ...
They disappear one by one
Wet shadows

電車の汽笛の音
一つずつ消える
濡れた影

Autumn evening ...
My mobile SMS voice:
Koko ... koko ...

Note:
In this haiku, the sound of" ko-ko " that can be heard from a mobile text message is similar to the song of a bird called a cuckoo.
The cuckoo song is soft and sad and similar to the word "ko-ko". 
This song is often heard at the beginning of spring, but when I wrote this haiku, it was autumn and the text message sounded like a sad cuckoo.

秋の夜
モバイルのSMSの音声
カッコー...カッコー

― Translated into Japanese by Hidenori Hiruta
