岩かげまさしく水が湧いてゐる
iwakage masashiku mizu ga waite iru
Taneda Santôka (種田 山頭火)
Behind the rocks, / Sure enough, a fountain; / Eureka! (Tr. by Takashi Nonin)
From the shadow / Of the rocks / Water wells up. (Tr. by John Stevens)
in the shade of the rock / sure to be / water bubbling up (Tr. by Burton Watson)
Behind the boulder, / Water trickling, / Just as I thought.
