no more shallow dreaming

Really.

色は匂へど
散りぬるを
我が世誰ぞ
常ならむ
有為の奥山
今日越えて
浅き夢見じ
酔ひもせず
いろはにほへと
ちりぬるを
わかよたれそ
つねならむ
うゐのおくやま
けふこえて
あさきゆめみし
ゑひもせす
As flowers are brilliant but [inevitably] fall,
who could remain constant in our world?
[No one could]
Today, let us transcend
the high mountain of transience,
and there will be no more shallow dreaming,
no more drunkenness.


-The Iroha
