I'd like that little one
for my gate...
billowing clouds
for my gate...
billowing clouds
ISSA 1811
.ちさいのは門にほしさよ雲の峰
chisai no wa kado ni hoshisa yo kumo no mine
chisai no wa kado ni hoshisa yo kumo no mine
Or: "I'd like those little ones..." Issa sees the little cloud (or clouds) as suitable for his small, humble hut.
