Shan Shan Poem by Ahmad Shiddiqi
Shan Shan
Citizens
All ages
Dancing gorgeously
Decorated paper umbrellas
Tinkling bells
Happily resound
Throughout area
Tottori City
Memory
Gorosaku
An old man
Who danced
Until dropped dead
In front of a guardian deity
To rescue local residents
From a devastating drought
