Basho's Haiku

[Everyday Issa] has been not delivered from Dr.David, so today I pick up Basho sensei.

Basho original 1684
道のべの むくげは馬に くわれけり
miti nobe no mukuge wa uma ni kuware keri

English translated by Barnhill

roadside rose of
sharon devoured
by my horse

sakuo renku
花は見送る旅立ちの朝

the flower look after
departure morning
