Issa - A world of grief and pain, Flowers bloom, Even then in Japanese is 苦の娑婆や桜が咲けば咲いたとて which is read ku no shaba ya sakura ga sakeba saita tote. This haiku by Issa was written upon the death of his child. With this in mind, there are two common ways to interpret this poem. One is pessimistic saying "how can flowers have the audicity to bloom in such a cruel world". The other optimistic "even in such a cruel world, flowers bloom".

And David G. Lanoue suggests the translation "world of pain - and the cherry blossoms add to it". R. H.
