    Poem by the Emperor by Emperor Yūryaku

    Updated:October 18, 20251 Min Read

    Girl with your basket,

         with your pretty basket,

    with your shovel,

         with your pretty shovel,

    gathering shoots on the hillside here.

    I want to ask your home.

    Tell me your name!

    This land of Yamato,

    seen by the gods on high—

         it is all my realm,

    in all of it I am supreme.

    I will tell you

    my home and my name
