ベランダに干してあった洗濯物を
取り込みながら、ふと思う。
一年中湿った国の人たちは
洗濯物が乾くのが大いなる喜び。
一年中乾いた国の人たちは
洗濯できることが大いなる喜び。
今日は一日中、どっちつかずな曇り空。
On the Balcony
While taking in the laundry
that had been dried on the balcony,
I suddenly think.
For people in wet countries all year long,
it's a great pleasure to dry the laundry.
People in countries dry all year round
are delighted to be able to wash.
It's a cloudy sky today, all day long.
