[DeepL Translation - needs review] Poem by Kenji Miyazawa, a writer of children's stories and poet during the Taisho and Showa periods. Unpublished during his lifetime. Written in 343 words in a notebook two years before Kenji's death [October to December 1931]. I can't seem to become a fine person, but I would like to become a person who can at least help the unfortunate, even if only a little. The modest image of human beings expressed in kanji and katakana is still alive today.
