偖も義臣すぐつて此城にこもり、功名一時の叢となる。国破れて山河あり。城春にして草青みたりと笠打敷て、時のうつるまで泪を落し侍りぬ。
夏草や兵どもが夢の跡
So here it is, I thought: the place where the stalwarts holed up in their fortress and gained an instant of glory - only to end as grassy fields. "The country ravaged, mountains and rivers remain; spring comes to the fortress, covered over in green." Putting my hand beneath me, I sat for a while and found myself in tears.
summer grasses
all that is left to us now
of warrior's dreams.
