by Ohotsuno Ozi (663 - 686)
Translation by Hans Bethge (1876 - 1946)
Trübes Lied
Language: German (Deutsch) after the Japanese (日本語)
Die Blüten rieseln nieder. Dichter Nebel Verbirgt den See. Die wilden Gänse rufen Erschreckt am heiligen Teich von Iware. Düstere Träume schatten um mein Haupt. Mein Herz ist schwer. Wenn übers Jahr die Gänse Von neuem rufen, hör ich sie nicht mehr.
