春やとき

Kokinwakashu 10（古今和歌集１０）：春の初めに、よめる、by Kotonao Fujihara(藤原言直)
春やとき花やをそきと聞き分かむ鶯だにも鳴かずもあるかな

Translated by Takuma Sutani

日本語 TO VERSION for PC
春やとき
花やをそきと
聞き分かむ
鶯だにも
鳴かずもあるかな 		I want to distinguish
through a bush warbler's notes
whether spring will come soon
or flowers will bloom late.
But, she does not sing.
