You swayed in the flow of the river A petel whose name I don't know From some flower, somewhere Your destination, also unknown The remains from those distant, nostalgic days Even now remains unchanged But if I reach out to you Your fragrance disappears Not defeated by the rain and blown by the win You proudly bloom Your name is So lovely, and yet I can't see you Even without seeing you, you make me smile This flower of the spring, that itself is beauty Dancing in the wind, appreciate the beauty of nature

*もののあはれ (mono no aware) - this dates back to the literature of the Heian period. It is an expression that is used to refer to the aesthetics of nature (its beauty, the life, anything) and your emotions and feelings of appreciation for it.
