このひよどりの声は、久しぶりに聞いた気がする。渡り鳥でなくても、季節というものがあるのだろうか。春や夏に現れる虫のように、毎年日付を覚えているごとく咲く花のように。

 

I believe I have not heard the call of these bulbuls in a very long time. If migratory birds did not exist, would we still refer to seasons as such? The bugs would still appear during the vernal and autumnal days, and flowers would remember to bloom when their time of the year arrives.
