A selection of ten haiku from My Haiku Pond Facebook page (www.facebook.com/MyHaikuPond), translated by Luca Cenisi.
名月や雪踏み分けて石の音
meigetsu ya yuki fumiwakete ishi no oto
harvest moon–
pushing through the snow,
a stone noise
luna d’autunno –
attraversando la neve,
un rumore di pietra
Fukuda Chiyo-ni (1703-1775)
暖簾の奥ものふかし北の梅
nōren no oku monofukashi kita no ume
the emptiness
beyond the curtain–
northern plum flowers
il vuoto
oltre la tendina –
pruni del Nord
