発祥 (柘植 元一):
| The original composer of this kumiuta is unknown. The song-texts are based on the last ten chapters of ‘The Tale of Genji.’ They deal mainly with the life of Kaoru, the son of the Third Princess and Kashiwagi, but thought by all to be Prince Genji’s son. The title of ‘Hashihime’ (‘The Lady at the Bridge’) is derived from the first song, which is based on the chapter of the same name. The second song is derived from a waka (1) poem by Kaoru in the chapter ‘Beneath the Oak’ (Shiigamoto). The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth songs are based respectively on the chapters ‘Early Ferns’ (Sawarabi), ‘The Ivy’ (Yadorigi), ‘A Boat upon the Waters’ (Ukifune) and ‘At Writing Practice’ (Tenarai). This piece is often sung at memorial services. (1) Court poetry of thirty-one syllables. |
詩 (【翻訳者】 柘植 元一)
| Like froth On the water, Or lightning In a dew drop, Where all is uncertain, The lady stands At the bridge Over the Uji River. The oak tree Beneath whose boughs I would rest When I am sad, Is gone. The village is empty, Our fate Sorrowful. Fern-shoots On the hilltop Make it hard to forget Her flowery form. For a keepsake I pluck them And bring them as an offering To her deserted house. Was it destiny In a former life? Or passion Of this life? To the deserted house In the Uji village He used to come Visiting ceaselessly. In love with Two I am a boat Drifting aimlessly- A butt of gossip. Ever since I went To the Islet of Tachibana I have been consumed with love. At Ono The autumn flowers By the bedchamber, Red plum blossoms, Reminding me Of the flower gardens And the longed-for People of old. | Mizu no ue no utakata tsuyu ni yadoru inazuma aruka nakika no yononaka wo ujigawa no hashihime Mi no uki toki wa tachiyoran kage to tanomishi shiigamoto munashiki sato to narinikeri chigiri no hodo zo kanashiki Mine ni ooru sawarabi mukashi no hana no omokage wasuregatami ni tsumiokite nushi naki yado ni okuran Saki no yo no chigiri ka konoyo no uchi no nasake ka munashiki ato to uji no sato taezu koko ni yadorigi Hitokata naranu mono omoi yorube sadamenu ukifune adanaru no nomi tachibana no kojimagasaki ni kogaruru Ono no hana no aki no koro neya no tsuma no koobai soreka to magoo hanazono mukashi no hito zo koishiki |
