Shuntaro Tanikawa

NIGHT

Night –
from somewhere comes
the sound of water boiling
 
a trace of
poison is
medicine
 
a person
violates another
unaware
 
without words
his heart
drifts
 
toward another
into darkness
toward faint torchlight
 


どこからか
湯のたぎる音
 
微量の
毒は

 
ヒトはヒトを
侵す
気づかずに
 
言葉なく
流れる

 
ヒトへ
闇へ
僅かな灯火へ
