Poem No.1, (Right side)

(葛)廼根 巌足穂
處女子か 手玉もゆらに くり出す 鯛の目よりも いとはひきけり

静垣濤安

(Kuzu)sune iwa taruho
Otome ko ka tedama mo yura ni kuridasu tai no me
yori mo ito wa hikikeri

Kudzu vine roots and spikes falling from a rock,
as the young girl casts her line farther,
she is more alluring than the eyes of sea bream

Shizugaki Toan

Poem No.2 (Left side)

芝うらに洗ふ赤めは名古の海のゆふ日のいろもあさむ
きぬへし
　
年垣真春

Shibaura ni arau akame wa nago no umi no yūhi no iro mo azamukinu beshi

The vivid red color of the “Aka-me"*, washed by the waters of “Shibaura” is so stunning that it even outshines the beauty of the sunset over the famed “Nago no Umi" ***

Toshigaki Maharu

* Another name for sea bream
** The Sea of Edo
*** The Sea of Nagoya

With regards,
I.Nagy
