一我从少年时代起就没有自己的家和家庭。每逢学校放假回乡省亲的时候,便寄居在亲戚家里。我在众多的亲戚家轮换着居住,然而假期的大部分时间,习惯于在待我最亲近的两家度过。那两家分别在淀川的南北两岸,一家在河内国的街里,另一家在摄津国的乡村。我坐渡船来往于这两家之间,无论到哪家,迎接我的人总是说:“回来啦!”而不说“您来啦!” I have not had my own family and family since I was a boy. Whenever school leave homecoming relatives, they reside in relatives home. I am living in a large number of relatives, but most of the holidays, used to spend the two closest to me. The two were on the north and south sides of Yodogawa, one in the streets of Hanoi and the other in the villages of Shizuoka. I am on a ferry between the two, and no matter where, the people who greet me always say, “Come back!” And not say “You’re coming!”
