autumn dusk

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::



autumn dusk -
the shadows in my valley
deepen

aki fukaki haijin wa nani o kaku hito zo

autumn deepens -
I wonder what my haiku friends
are writing right now

aki fukaki tonari wa nani o suru hito zo
Basho


and about Basho, we know
http://wkdkigodatabase03.blogspot.com/2007/11/autumn-deepens-aki-fukashi.html



Basho lived in a place where the space to the neighbuor was just one thin wall and he could hear everything from next-door (next-wall, so to say). But beyond the thin wall, Basho could also hear the deepening autumn as his neighbour, so to day, in space.


autumn deepens
and I wonder,
what is my neighbour doing?

Tr. Gabi Greve, inspired by Hasegawa Kai
