いつまでも旅をする事の爪をきる
Itsumademo tabi o suru koto no tsume o kiru
Taneda Santôka (種田 山頭火)

how much longer / on the road? / clipping my nails (Tr. by Burton Watson)
Up to the very end, it is journeying, / And cutting our (toe-) nails. (Tr. by R. H. Blyth)
Until when, / This traveling? / Clipping my toenails. (Tr. by Hisashi Miura and James Green)
