茶の花のちるばかりちらしておくthe tea flowers, i let them just keep falling as they fall

庵のまわりの茶の木に白い花が咲き、散るにまかせて散らしてある。掃くでもなく、惜しむでもなく、散るものは散るばかりにしておく。手を出さないことも、暮らしのひとつの作法。The tea shrubs around the hermitage bloom white, and he leaves the flowers to scatter as they will. Neither sweeping them up nor grieving them, he lets what falls simply keep falling. Doing nothing, too, is one of the ways of this life.
