The 26th Mainichi Haiku Contest 2022 Results
First Prize ◇ Premier Prix
Night shelter —
they lightly opened the door
to hear the crickets
— Cristian Matei (Romania)
***
Une nuit dans l'abri —
On a entrouvert la porte
Pour écouter les criquets

This haiku likely depicts a daily scene in a bombed area of Ukraine, near Romania, where the author lives. We see that even in the depths of despair — and perhaps even more so in moments like these — people retain a gentleness of soul, a love of beauty, of nature. And it is precisely this that allows them to remain human.
＊＊＊
Ce haïku décrit sûrement la vie quotidienne dans les zones bombardées en Ukraine, tout près de la Roumanie où vit l'auteur. On se dit que l'être humain, même au fond du désespoir (ou plus encore dans ces moments peut-être ?) conserve une douceur d'âme, un amour de la beauté, de la nature. Et c'est justement ce qui lui permet de rester un Homme.
＊＊＊
作者が住むルーマニアに近い、ウクライナの戦争地域を詠んだ作品であろう。どんな窮地に陥ても人間は風情あるもの、たとえば虫の声を愛でるという優しい心を持ち続けるのだ。だからこそ人間なのだ。感無量の一句である。
(translation of haiku and comment by Seegan Mabesoone)

人形を抱いて
夏の雨つぶと
ともに踊る
(translation of haiku in English by Aaron Baldwin)
Pour un enfant, il existe toujours un moyen extraordinaire de transfigurer la réalité : le rêve ! Pour une petite fille qui danse avec sa poupée, les gouttes de pluie ne sont plus de l'eau froide, elles se transforment en une multitude d'étoiles qui éclairent la princesse qu'elle deviendra un jour...
＊＊＊
For a child, there is always a wonderful way to transform reality: through dreams! For a little girl dancing with her doll, the raindrops are no longer cold water; they turn into a multitude of stars that light up the princess she will become one day.
＊＊＊
どんな時でも、子供は「夢」という日常のなかの“非常口”をもっている。人形と一緒に踊れば雨つぶは冷たい水ではなくなり、お姫様を照らす無数の星となる。そして自分の希望の星空となる。

Florin Golban observed a spider in Bucharest, Romania. Perhaps he was inspired by this first line of Mary Howitt’s poem published in 1829: “Will you walk into my parlour?” said the spider to the fly.

Weekly Best Haiku 13-19 March (Haiku Column Facebook group)
măcinarea orezului -
o ceață ușoară acoperă luna plină
grinding rice -
a light mist covers the full moon
une brume légère couvre la pleine lune
macinazione del riso -
una nebbia leggera copre la luna piena
*
"J’apprécie la surimpression d’images que ce haïku suggère : le produit du broyage du riz est une farine très fine et on peut imaginer qu’un voile poudreux de farine se confonde avec la brume légère. Par association d’idées, il me vient à l’esprit une légende bouddhiste qui veut qu’un lapin prépare des mochi sur la Lune. Les mochi sont des petites pâtisseries en forme de boule à base de farine de riz gluant, elles se consomment durant le festival automnal du Tsukimi qui signifie ‘‘regarder la Lune’’ correspondant à l’époque de récolte du riz". Nadine Léon
*
„Apreciez suprapunerea imaginilor pe care o sugerează acest haiku: produsul măcinării orezului este o făină foarte fină și ne putem imagina că un văl pudrat de făină se îmbină cu ceața ușoară. Prin asocierea de idei, vine o legendă budistă. Gândiți-vă că un iepure pregătește mochi pe lună. Mochi sunt mici produse de patiserie în formă de bilă făcute din făină de orez lipicioasă, acestea sunt consumate în timpul festivalului de toamnă de la Tsukimi, care înseamnă „privind la lună” corespunzător perioadei de recoltare a orezului "
