_Utsutsu wo mo

Utsutsu to sara ni

Omowaneba,

Yume wo mo yume to

Nani ka omowamu?

Since I am convinced

That Reality is in no way

Real,

How am I to admit

That dreams are dreams?_

The verses and translation above are taken from A. Waley's "JAPANESE POETRY: THE UTA" (Clarendon Press), as are many of the classical poems placed at the head of the chapters.
