Lady Sei Shonagon

Said night was young when 
the false rooster's crow
but the gates of Afusaka remained shut
Lady Sei Shonagon

El canto del gallo
a medianoche
engañó a los escuchas;
pero a las puertas de Osaka
los guardias nunca son engañados.

A dita noite era uma criança
 quando o falso cantar do galo ecoou, 
mas os portões de Afusaka 
permaneceram cerrados
