That Moment

Hakushū Kitahara

That moment
Something I was doing,
Some flower was in bloom.

The woods were waving good-bye,
’Twas a warm sunny day.
On a car with father was I;
Once more I hurled my cap.

I, too, said good-bye;
That was all, that was all!

On the girder-bridge
The Koreans were working. Kan, kan, kan!
