Haiku by Eufemia Griffo

fallen leaves

everything goes away

together with the wind

落ち葉

すべてがなくなる

風と共に

bare branches

the leaves already regret

their dwelling

裸の枝

葉はすでになつかしく思っている

彼らの住処を

paper lanterns

a sparkling swarm

of tiny stars

提灯

小さな星の輝く群れ

misty woods

the invisible color

of hawthorn

霧の森

サンザシの目に見えない色

fishing village

the lapping of waves

in empty nets

漁村

波の打ち寄せる音

空の網に

The Great Wave

an old painter mixes colours

of the infinite

グレートウエーブ

年老いた画家が無限の色を混ぜる

Beech tree

the long roots

of childhood memories

ブナの木

子供時代の思い出の長い根

upturned shells

the sound of sea

buried in the sand

上向きの貝

砂に埋もれた海の音

late spring

the elderberry woods

blanketed by snow

晩春エルダーベリーの森

雪に覆われた

— Translated by Hidenori Hiruta

old chair
the sound of solitude
in her room

vecchia sedia
il suono della solitudine
nella sua stanza
