translate

In a gray autumn grass beaten by frost,

Worms are whispering,

Pedestrians around the mountain village disappeared.

I came to the front door alone and looked at the fields outside.

I saw the bright moonlight.

According to the endless buckwheat fields,

Buckwheat flowers are everywhere.

Like a dazzling piece of snow.
