the old pond
a frog jumps in
the sound of water
(Matsuo Basho, 1644-1694)
Lilies closing their buds
Moon to keep his watch round
the old pond
a frog jumps in
the sound of water
the sound of water
(Matsuo Basho, 1644-1694)
Wind caresses the pine trees
Perfect for a cup of tea
the old pond
a frog jumps in
the sound of water
