waning sun

 scade soarele 

prin floarea soarelui…

ea se-ascunde sub pălăria cu dungi

waning sun

through sunflowers...

she hides under the striped hat

soleil couchant 

à travers les tournesols…

elle se cache sous le chapeau rayé

himawari o tōshite shayō

shima moyō no bōshi noshitade 

kanojo wa kakureru

ひまわりを通して斜陽

縞模様の帽子の下で

彼女は隠れる
