On Misago Beach
On Misago
Beach there grows
Sargasso weed-
I'll hold fast to your name
Though your parents know!

From the bay at Nawa
From the bay at Nawa,
Gazing back upon
The offshore islands
The boats around them
Seem to be fishing

Off the beach at Waka
Off the beach at Waka
With the rising tide
The sandbanks vanish
Plunging to the reed beds
The cranes fly over, calling.
