Today we’re drawing from Chapter 18 of the Tale of Genji and Kokinshu 409
Sources:
Poem from Royall Tyler’s translation of The Tale of Genji:
“My heart is with the boat that draws away, dim through the mists off Akashi, and disappears behind the island”
Poem from Seidensticker’s translation of The Tale of Genji:
“Sad am I as the boat puts out from Akashi
And disappears among the island mists”
Poem from Washburn’s translation of The Tale of Genji:
“I think longingly of the boat the disappeared amidst the islands and morning fog in the dim light of dawn over the bay at Akashi”
Poem from Kokinshu: A Collection of Poems Ancient and Modern translated by Laurel Rasplica Rodd
“dimly through morning
mists over Akashi Bay my
longings trace the ship
vanishing from sight floating
silently behind the isle”
