Haiku by Ram Krishna Singh

he sweeps yellow leaves

or gathers years in a heap

burns to merge with dust

彼は黄色い葉を掃く

何年も山のように集める

燃やして塵と一体化する

looking for Taj in grains

through sand storm find history

trapped between toes

穀物の中でタージを探している

砂嵐を通して歴史を見つける

足の指の間に閉じ込められいる

two wolves smell

the carcass in field

heat wave chills

二匹の狼の匂い

野原の死骸

熱波の中の寒気

ripe on the branches

mangoes fall one by one

end of the season

枝に熟した

マンゴーが一つずつ落ちる

シーズンの終わり

smell of kamini

in front of my house excites:

humming birds mate

カミニの匂い

私の家の前で興奮する

ハミングバードがつがう

a load of wood

on her frail back

autumn evening

大量の木材

彼女のか弱い背中に

秋の夕方

on a cycle

he sells bouquets and roses

peddling dreams

サイクルで

彼は花束とバラを売る

夢を売り歩きながら

in the wild

inner echoes—

dragonfly

野生で

内なる反響

トンボ

naked in debris

a crying baby girl

he bends to pick up

瓦礫の中で裸

泣いている女の赤ちゃん

彼はかがんで拾い上げる

measure loneliness

sip by sip

at dining table

孤独を測る

一口ずつ飲む

ダイニングテーブルで
