Journal of Bleached Bones in a Field

I set out on a journey of a thousand leagues, packing no provisions.
I leaned on the staff of an ancient who, it is said,
entered into nothingness under the midnight moon.
It was the first year of Jokyo, autumn, the eighth moon.
As I left my ramshackle hut by the river,
the sound of the wind was strangely cold.
Tr. Barnhill

野ざらしを心に風のしむ身かな
nozarashi o kokoro ni kaze no shimu mi kana

bleached bones
on my mind, the wind pierces
my body to the heart

Tr. Barnhill



That white skeleton
haunts my mind ... the autumn wind
penetrates my bones

Tr. Blyth



A skeletion exposed in a field
Comes across my mind,
A piercing cold wind blows.

Tr. Oseko



ready to become
a skeleton in the fields ---
the winds piercing my heart

Tr. Peipei Qui



Vision of a sun bleached skull
In my mind, the body
Pierced by the wind.

Tr. Saito / Nelson


The hokku has the cut marker KANA at the end of line 3.

from the scroll Tabiji no Emaki 旅路の画巻

- - - quoting Basho
I myself tried to fall asleep, supressing the surge of emotion from within, but my excitement was simply too great. I finally took out my notebook from my bag and read the poems given me by my friends at the time of my departure - Chinese poem by Sodo, a waka by Hara Anteki, haiku by Sampu and Dakushi (Jokushi 濁子 / 蜀子), all about the islands of Matsushima.
