en mi tristeza,
por consolarme salí fuera
y, al aguzar el oído,
vino a mí el canto del higurashi

み空行く雲も使と人は言へど
家づと遣らむたづき知らずも

The clouds can be your messengers,"
Or so folk say, yet
How a gift home they'll take
I really know not.

Over the sea's wide sweep
Trails a haze of mist;
The cranes call
Sadly in the dusk
Reminding me of home.
