しらず祖父の俤 目下（まのあたり）に見るがごとく再び開く花道のまへわたり
現代語訳
家の帽子針には費長房も乗ることが困難であろう。その狂言というのは、姿は切幕の内にあって一声響く本舞台、「しばらく」がやまない成田屋の若旦那。侠客の胴中に篠塚の像を彫れば、頼み切った片腕の猪熊入道も引き立ての鯰坊主に等しく、鯉の滝登りは既に龍のごとく、吟ずる声色に聞く人は雲を起こし、うそぶける虎屋の蒸籠があれば風を生ずる。団扇絵、怪しの出格子へ呼び入れるあり。田舎同士の江戸見物はいずれも団十郎を先にして追い込みに見る。お家の芸の荒事には肝を弁当の焼き飯とともに潰し、案内者が三升自慢に鼻の高き一枚絵を求めて兄が守り袋に封じ、息災延命一生を健やかなお祓いと、相店に住めば都も田舎人も貴賤上下おしなべて感じない者こそなかった。しかるに去りし未の春、祖父の二十三回忌とて助六の初役を勤めたが、その鉢巻の色を知らず、祖父の面影を目の当たりに見るがごとく、再び開く花道の前渡り。
英語訳
Even Hitchōbō would find it difficult to ride on the house's hat pin. That kyōgen performance has its form behind the curtain, with one voice resounding on the main stage - the "Shibaraku" of Naritaya's young master never ceases. When the image of Shinozuka is carved on the chest of a chivalrous man, even the one-armed Inokuma Nyūdō, who was completely trusted, is like a supporting catfish priest. The carp's ascent up the waterfall is already like a dragon, and those who hear his chanting voice stir up clouds. If there are the steaming baskets of Toraya that can roar, there are fan paintings that generate wind. There are those called into the mysterious latticed storefronts. Country folk on their Edo sightseeing all prioritize seeing Danjūrō first in the cheap seats. In the rough-style plays that are the house specialty, they crush their livers along with the fried rice in their lunch boxes. The guides, proud of their three-shō capacity, seek single-sheet prints with prominent noses to seal in their elder brothers' protective pouches for lifelong health and longevity as blessed purification. Living in neighboring shops, whether people of the capital or countryside, high or low in status, there was no one who remained unmoved. However, in the spring of the past Year of the Sheep, he performed the debut role of Sukeroku for his grandfather's twenty-third memorial service. Not knowing the color of that headband, as if seeing his grandfather's visage before his very eyes, the front crossing of the hanamichi opens once again.
