My selected haiku poems:(Kaa.Na.Kalyanasundaram)





*even though unequal

unity in function…
the fingers!


等しさは違えど団結指五本



*many coloured flowers

in a single fibre …

the feelings of integrity!



繊維なす色々な花統合や





*the tears overflowed
for the little sparrows…
we sold the house!


家を売り雀の子らに涙する



*though drowned
blossomed as water circles…
stone thrown in the pond!


石投げる池の水面に花が咲く



*to protect the environment
refused to peck
the silent woodpeckers


つつき止む環境保護の啄木鳥や





*sitting on the bird too
you can fly in the sky…
if broad-minded!


鳥に乗り空飛ぶ君は寛大や



*for seeing the horizon
a sweet journey…
towards the home town!


旅思う水平線のふるさとへ



*we are on journey
in the galleon
towards the splendid aim


目標へガレオン船の旅路かな



*the personal language of
the Universe
is silence


沈黙や宇宙の人の言語なり



*in the yard of the house
a house warming
by little sparrows


雀の子家暖める庭の中



*for the jingle of coins
showers of sweet songs
the street singer.


コイン得て歌のシャワーや街の歌手





*while stepping down
refused to show their faces
the mountain steps.

山下り顔見せ拒む石の段




*even the bitter relations
become sweet jack-fruit-peals
in the shadow of separation


苦き仲別れの影や甘くなる



*to see the flowers
always searching in the soil
the roots of a plant


花見むと植物の根の土探し



*The bamboo embraced
The winter fire holes…
Lovely flute born!


竹抱かれ冬の火の穴フルートや
