From the Art Institute of Chicago record
This poem is in the calligraphy of Toyota Ito, age 10, the elder sister of Toyota Mine, who recorded the previous poem. Have we come to the end? If you appeared, even in reflection, That is what I would ask. But on the pool of remembrance How the water-weed has grown! (Translation by Andrew J. Pekarik)
