When I Think of You , 君を思えば

Photo by Mr Syuji

You have experienced the most spoken feeling of the time. 

Love. 

I think we need not an explanation about this. 

It can come suddenly without a notice,  

sometimes we are late to realize this kind of feeling, 

but the above-all situation made us can't sleep well, made us crave the meeting, and forced us to change our perceptions sometimes. 


Every time, we think about that person we feel peace in our hearts. 

We can't be thankful enough for how this feeling arrived. However, there's a longing heart that stays there and needs to be fulfilled. 


A short poem by Ishikawa Takuboku


時として
君を思えば
安かりし心にわかに騒ぐかなしさ


Here's a possible translation by ChatGPT 
"At times,
When I think of you,
Suddenly, in my once tranquil heart, a restlessness stirs—
A poignant sorrow."

  1. Thank you for taking up Takuboku Ishikawa. I' so glad. And I didn't come up with translating it with chatGPT!

  2. I also translate this poem by Takuboku to English,

    叱られて
    わっと泣き出す子供心
    その心にもなりてみたきかな

    scolded
    A child's heart bursting into tears
    I want to become that heart too

A word from you is a gift for me...
