【汉英俳句】蟋 蟀
蟋 蟀
周道模 著译
草丛啼月光
跳上路面恋爱忙
狗嘴里命丧
Mourning the Crickets
cried for moonlight in grass
they jumped onto street to make love
but died in the dog's mouth

中文俳句逐句译成英文免不了一,臃长;二,失了俳味。 |

我也是第一次看见,原来也不知。世上很多稀奇事我们并不都知晓。谢读! |

I didn’t mean to be negative, William, but find your C-ku is better than your E-ku.
I tried one based on yours, which might not convey exactly what you intended, or even worse than yours, but hope you get what I meant.
chirps in moonlit grass
jumping to the road they mate -
dog's mouth slobbering
At least, it is within 17 syllables. Just one more way to look at it.
Not the best, but hope it helps a bit. |

Hope I didn't confuse you.
"moonlit" should be "moonlight" in your line if you want a noun there.
Line 2 doesn't make much sense.
Best,

OK! go on rewriting it. |

如果不是因为要“削诗就俳”,第一及第三句都该加个"里"字才是. 现在读起来好象是“草丛”在啼月光,“狗嘴"完蛋了. 一笑. |
