Hi,
I am trying to find this haiku in japanese, but unsusccesfull so far. Any idea where I could find it?
Thank you 😀
Hi Alexandra. The translation I used doesn’t include a Japanese text or provide a reference for one. All the translator says about the author is that ‘Masaoka Shiki (1856-1902) and was a samurai of the Matsuyama clan’. That’s as much information as I have.
Happy New Year! James
