How peaceful is

Every single dawn;

I gaze out, yet

Still in the depths of night

I dream…a grief, indeed.

In the depths of night…I dream

How peaceful is

Every single dawn;

I gaze out, yet

Still in the depths of night

I dream…a grief, indeed.

on blossoms have I thought

At a loss,

To times gone past

My thoughts return;

Gloomily on blossoms have I thought,

This spring gone by.

                                   ~Princess Shokushi*
