SEN NO RIKYÛ

Rikyû's Statue in Daitokuji

 hana wa nomi
matsuran hito ni
yamazato no
haru wo miseba ya

To those who await
only the cherry's blossoming,
I would show:
Spring in the mountain village,
Its young herbes amid snow.

Shin Kôkin Wakashû

Sono michi ni iran
to omou kokoro
koso wagami
nagara no shisho
narikere.

Rikyû Hyakushû
