David’s English
world of man--
a rice field replaces
lotus blossoms
一茶
人の世に田に作るる蓮の花
hito no yo ni ta ni tsukuraruru hasu no hana
by Issa, 1816
1816, Age 54Fourth Month, 14th day, a son, Sentarô, is born. Fifth Month, 11th day, he dies.
It is only 27days life.
This was season of rice planting.
The baby was the first son whom Issa has got after long hard life, 45 years in Edo.
The rice field has become Issa’s asset after long struggle, 13 years with half brother.
sakuo renku
家族で田植えの夢は消えけり
kazoku de taue no yume ha kie keri
planting rice with family
the dream has disappeared
