neither a tree nor / yet a grass is the bamboo / and like it have I / become a being somewhere / between joint and node half-formed / |
| 解釈 |
The first two-and-one-halflines (of the bamboo, which is neither grass nor tree) are a jo linked to the kakekotoba "yo" (joint; world). "Hashi" (center) is an engo for "yo" (joint). This poem is based on lines from the Chin-dynasty writer Tai K'ai-chih- "Among the plants, there is one called bamboo; it is neither hard nor soft, neither tree nor grass." Princess Takatsu (d.841) was a daughter of Kanmu tenno~ and a consort of Saga tenno~. |
