. - Masaoka Shiki 正岡子規 Introduction - .


He wrote quite a few haiku about the "old pond" with an allusion to
Matsuo Basho, sometimes just making fun of the phrase.

古池や蛙飛び込む水の音
furu ike ya kawazu tobikomu mizu no oto

. Matsuo Basho - furu ike ya 古池や .



. honkadori 本歌取り allusion to an original poem .

古池やさかさに浮ふ蝉のから
furuike ya sakasa ni ukabu semi no kara

this old pond -
upside down there floats
a cicada shell

Tr. Gabi Greve

from 蝉の殻 - cicada shell
semi no kara, maybe another allusion to Basho and his "semi no koe".

古池や昼静かなる夏の鴛
furuike ya hiru shizuka naru natsu no en

this old pond -
in summer at noon they become quiet
the mandarin ducks




古池に亡き妻や思ふ鴛一羽
furuike ni naki tsuma omou oshi ichiwa

in the old pond
one mandarin duck
thinks of its dead wife




古池のをしに雪降る夕かな
furuike no oshi ni yuki furu yuube kana

snow falls on the mandarin ducks
in the old pond -
this evening




芙蓉咲いて古池の鴛やもめ也
fuyo saite furuike no oshi yamome nari

cotton roses flowering -
the mandarin duck in the old pond
is a widower

古池や凍りもつかで鴨の足

- and some more about bashoo, the banana plant

in the poor village
there is just one temple -
torn banana leaves
