Krystian Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 Hello, Could you help me with translation of this poem? Thank you in advance. Krystian Quote
vajo Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 Krystian i think it is the poem which Minamoto no Yoshitsune scratched in the tree for emperor Go-Toba. I can't read it but i see it often on a Kozuka. You find that scene on Tsuba too. I have a book The Nobility of Failure from Ivan Morris which has a chapter and the poem of this event. Maybe it goes in that direction. Quote
Krystian Posted October 1, 2020 Author Report Posted October 1, 2020 Thank you Chris. I will try to follow that thread. I alredy found few examples of poems on kozuka but non with this one. Quote
SteveM Posted October 3, 2020 Report Posted October 3, 2020 Bumping this one up to see if any of our native Japanese speakers (or anyone) can assist. Quote
