Not yet evening,
But with the rain,
It is a window of autumn.

        Sogi (1421-1502)

Looking as if
I have nothing on my mind.
An autumn evening.

        Den Sute-jo (1633-1698)

On a withered branch,
A crow is perched,
In the autumn evening.

        Basho (1644-1694)

Indifferent and languid,
I burned some incense:
An evening of spring.

        Buson (1716-1784)

In a short life,
An hour of leisure,
This autumn evening.

       Buson (1716-1784)

An autumn eve;
There is a joy too,
In loneliness.

       Buson (1716-1784)

It is overcast;
The plum trees are covered
With the dust of evening.

        Gyodai (1732-1792)

A day of spring;
Twilight lingers
Wherever there is water.

        Issa (1763-1828)

I have nothing at all,—
But this tranquillity!
This coolness!

        Issa (1763-1828)
