一羽来て

さくらにささやく

別れの歌

A lone bird arrives,

whispers to the cherry tree

a song of farewell.

-

A bird arrives

with morning's cheer,

its song a spark

among the waking trees.

Sakura sway

in blushing breeze,

as if they lean

to catch the notes

of spring’s first lullaby.

Petals twirl,

a soft parade,

joy in every flutter,

farewell full of light.
