There was a woman, young, beautiful—you used to hug her from behind, closing your hands over the cry of surprise she gave out like perfume. Now here she is, rising from the dead landscape of memory, just this fragment of her, still kneeling.

平家物語(初歌) 祇園精舎
Heike Monogatari (Opening Poem) Gion Shrine
Translated by P.G. O'Neill
Gion shouja no kane no koe
祇園精舎の鐘の聲、 The knell of the bells at the Gion temple
shogyou mujou no hibiki ari.
諸行無常の響あり。
echoes the impermanence of all things.
Shara souju no hana no iro
娑羅雙樹の花の色、
The color of the flowers on its double-trunked tree
jousha hissui no kotowari o arawasu.
盛者必衰のことわりをあらはす。
reveals the truth that to flourish is to fall.
Ogoreru hito mo hisashikarazu,
おごれる人も久しからず、
He who is proud is not so for long,
tada haru no yo no yume no gotoshi.
唯春の夜の夢のごとし。
like a passing dream on a night in spring.
Takeki mono mo tsui ni horobinu,
たけき者も遂にほろびぬ、
He who is brave is finally destroyed,
hitoe ni kaze no mae no chiri ni onaji.
偏に風の前の塵に同じ。
to be no more than dust before the wind.
“If you think anyone is sane you just don't know enough about them.”
— Christopher Moore, Practical Demonkeeping
