Paper Crane

Atrocious Nobugana will he kill the cuckoo? You, spring rains, sing at eaves, princess heartsick leaves! Nobunaga-evil-minded will kill the cuckoo. Who knows? Maybe a geisha will dabble his heart with a song... Happiness eyedrops between bloomed cherries. Warm sights caress a real dream in the nest: tweet. Under the bloomed cherries, gifted Hideyoshi is singing a serenade. Even if it is raining, in his eyes I see the entire Sun. Ieyasu- the patient is waiting in the orchard to pass the rain- Opened umbrella by a flowers curl... Paper crane carried by the wind... Susanowa is vanishing a nightmare into a love kiss. An unique little cloud above the palace... Love poem far in the skies lover’s face. Only Hitomaro knows the snows secret of the cherry’s flowers . (translated by Raluca Ciociu)
