with warm friends


1820
一茶
雨の夜や鉢のぼたんの品定
ame no yo ya hachi no botan no shinasadame

David’s English
a rainy night--
sizing up the potted
peony

Last year lovely daughter die.
I suppose that Issa made this ku in Naganuma where were there 10 his students.
And he could forget his sorrows among the haiku friends.

Renku
友としばしの憂さを忘れん
tomo to sibashi no usa wo harasan

with warm friends briefly
drown my sorrows
