Description

This anthology gathers a vivid selection of classic Japanese poems, freshly rendered into lyrical German. The verses sweep through timeless motifs—delicate spring blossoms, moonlit mountains, fierce battlefields, and whispered yearnings of lovers—each preserving the original’s subtle rhythm and emotional depth. As you listen, the translator’s careful craft lets the ancient voices speak directly to modern ears.

The collection unfolds like a seasonal journey, beginning with the soft perfume of cherry‑blossom mornings and moving toward the stark shadows of night and the echo of distant drums. Listeners will hear the tender intimacy of courtly love, the restless longing of wandering souls, and the reverent awe inspired by iconic landscapes such as Fuji. Whether you seek calm contemplation or a glimpse into Japan’s poetic heart, these verses offer a serene yet stirring soundtrack for any moment.
