The morning glory!
It has taken the well bucket,
I must seek elsewhere for water.    © Chiyo-Ni (Tr. Patricia Donegan)

some other translations for the same beautiful haiku

A morning glory.
Twined round the bucket:
I will ask my neighbor for water

~~~

the morning glory-
the well-bucket entangled
I ask for water

My attempt:

in the early dew
my lilies choked
by morning glories

~~~

petals unfurl
catching the dew
before the sun

 ~~~

giant sunflowers
ripened heads bowed
offering for birds
