Description

"めぐりあひて
みしやそれとも
わかぬまに
くもがくれにし
よはのつきかな"

Meguri aite
Mishi ya sore to mo
Wakanu ma ni
Kumo-gakure ni shi
Yowa no tsuki ka na

Long last we meet,
only for me to leave hurriedly,
for I could not recognize you,
like the moon hidden behind the clouds.

A Poem from the Japanese Anthology Ogura Hyakunin Isshu.
The illustration is a representation of the writer, Murasaki, also
seen in the "Chōyaku Hyakunin isshu: Uta Koi" anime. This illustration
was made for the Japanese Cultural Week in my city, Mérida Venezuela.

I hope you all enjoy it :)
