Excerpt from The Sparrow Who Lost Her Tongue by Osamu Dazai.



“Where dwells the sparrow who lost her tongue?
Where dwells the sparrow who lost her tongue?”

Not that he actually vocalizes these words as he wanders about in search of her, of course. But the wind seems to whisper in his ears, and at some point, as he tramps through the deep snow of the bamboo forest, this queer little ditty—not quite a song and not quite a chant—wells up in his heart in harmony with that whispering wind.

“Where dwells the sparrow who lost her tongue?
Where dwells the sparrow who lost her tongue?”

    I loved this story. It's from his collection: Otogizōshi: The Fairy Tale Book of Osamu Dazai.
