Haiku by Kaa.Na.Kalyanasundaram in India (2)

Tamil Haiku

விட்டுக்கொடுக்கும்
பண்பை வளர்க்கின்றன
ஒற்றையடிப் பாதைகள்

Give up attitude
is developed by
one-foot roads

あきらめる態度
引き出された
一本足の道によって

அடுத்த வேளை
சமையலுக்கு ஏதுமில்லை
சமைந்தாள் மகள்

Nothing is left
for the next cooking
daughter attained puberty

何も残っていない
次の料理のために
思春期を迎えた娘

வீசாத வலைக்குள்
சிக்குண்டு தவிக்கிறது
மீனவனின் பசி

Stranded in
an unspread net
Fisherman's hunger

立ち往生
広げられていないネット
漁師の飢え

கட்டுமரங்கள்
ஓய்வெடுக்கின்றன
விசைப்படகு வாழ்க்கை

Catamarans
take rest
Invention of motor boats

カタマラン
休息を取る
モーターボートの発明

காற்றின் மொழியோடு
கை குலுக்கி மகிழ்கிறேன்
அருவியின் சாரல்

With the tongue of wind
I take pleasure in shaking hands
waterfall shower

風の舌で
握手するのが楽しみ
滝のシャワー

நங்கூரமிட்ட படகினை
தொட்டு ரசிக்கின்றன
மோதும் கடலலைகள்

Dashing sea waves
touch and enjoy
the anchored boat

威勢のいい海の波
触れて楽しんでください
固定ボート

எருதுகளின் உழைப்பை
எடுத்துக் கூறுகின்றனவோ?
சாட்டைத் தழும்புகள்

Whether the scars of lashes
reveal the labour of
the oxes?

まつ毛の傷跡が
労力を示すかどうか
牛たちの

வீசும் தென்றல்
மெல்ல அசைத்துப் பார்க்கிறது
ஆலமரத்து ஊஞ்சல் 

Blowing breeze
shakes gently
the swing of banyan tree

吹くそよ風
優しく揺らす
ガジュマルの木のブランコ

முற்றுப்பெறாது உடைந்த
சிலைகளோடு அமர்ந்திருக்கிறது
சிற்பியின் உளி

The chisel of sculptor
sitting along with unfinished
broken statues

彫刻家のノミ
未完成のままそこに
壊れた彫像と共に

சருகுகளின் சலசலப்பில்
அமைதியாய் பயணிக்கிறது
எனது நிழல்

my shadow,
amidst rustle of dry leaves,
travels calmly

私の影、
乾燥した葉のざわめきの中
穏やかに旅行
