I should stay at the last inn

Issa
笠の露眠むらんとすれば犬の声
kasa no tsuyu nemuran to sureba inu no koe

David’s English
under dewy umbrella-hat
nodding off...
the dog barks!

sakuo's Renku
前の宿屋に泊まるれば良かった
mae no yadoya ni tomareba yokatsuta

at the last inn
I should stay
it’s regrettable

Santoka was also happy for a good place to sleep, in front of an inn...

Thanks!
