Haiku by Shanthi Saravanan (India)

வானத்தின்

காட்சி படலம்

அந்தரத்தில் நடனமாடும் புறாக்கள்

***

Hollow Space

In the sky

Dancing pigeons

***

天上の虚空に遊び踊る鳩

HAIKU to Akita’s “Haiku Beyond Earth”

***

Dance performance

In the Sky

A split half from the wing

翼から裂けし分身踊る空

***

In rain water

Face is washed by

Leaves

雨水に葉つぱで顔を洗ひけり

***

Air fragrance carried

fish smell

The black cat that follows

黒猫や魚の匂ひ追ひかける

***

to the waves

Sea gives way

By spreading the sand

砂広げ波頭に道を譲る海

***

Black Beauty

in the Garden

Embryonic beetle

庭の中黒きものあり美しや甲虫なりその幼虫ぞ

***

A dance of shadows

on the ground

Wings fly Tapasfl

飛ぶ翼影のダンスの地に映える

Note: Short Japanese Poetry of 17 phonetic Units of 5, 7, 5 Pattern

Inspired by English haiku by Shanthi Saravanan, Hidenori Hiruta translated them literally into short Japanese poems first of all.

As a result, the interpretative Japanese poems of 5, 7, 5 pattern are added to the English haiku as above. Some of them might be haiku（俳句）, and others senryū（川柳).    　 

Surprisingly, one of the English haiku were interpreted into Japanese tanka（短歌）poetry of 5,7,5,7,7 pattern. This is because English is different from Japanese.
