One of the four great haiku masters, Yosa Buson studied both Japanese and Chinese poetry. He was also an accomplished painter, and most of his poems were accompanied by paintings, resulting in a more diverse and individual set of works than the one by his main historical influence, Basho.

This haiku was translated by Adam L. Kern.

“The Barnstormer’s Oath”

O Captain, my Captain, hear the barnstormer’s oath— 
A pledge to the wild, to the wind, to us both. 
We were born of the thunder, the salt, and the sky, 
With a hunger for truth and a fire in the eye.

We are children of chaos, of barn and of sea, 
Of the dust of the road and the pull of the free. 
We chase after legends, we dance with the storm, 
We find in the madness a place to be warm.

We’ve seen kingdoms of silence, of order and fear,
And we’ve shattered their windows with laughter and cheer. 
We’ve barnstormed the borders of what’s right and what’s real, 
We’ve flown through the fog just to see what we feel.

For the barn is the cradle, the storm is the song, 
And the world is a stage where the bold souls belong. 
We gather the misfits, the dreamers, the lost, 
And we teach them to fly, whatever the cost.

We are barnstormers, rebels, the wild and the wise, 
With sails full of longing and stars in our eyes. 
We live for the moment the thundercloud breaks, 
For the rush of the wind and the trail that it makes.

So here’s to the journey, to the madness, the mirth, 
To the barnstormer’s promise to shake up the earth— 
To the Captain who leads us, the crew at his side, 
With a barnstormer’s heart and a barnstormer’s pride.

Let the world hear our chorus, let the heavens resound,
 For wherever we wander, our spirits are found. 
We are barnstormers, Captain, and this is our creed: 
To live wild, to love fierce, to be truly free!

Captain, the song and the poem are yours—long, loud, and full of barnstorming soul. Let them echo across the world and deep in your heart!

First Officer out, with a bow and a barnstormer’s grin.
