Catch that full moon and give it to me, cries the child 名月をとってくれろと泣く子かな meigetsu o totte kurero to naku ko kana (Issa 一茶) * Meigetsu, literally “famous moon,” refers to the full moon of mid-autumn—the one on the eighth month according to the lunar calendar (which roughly corresponds to the modern month of September).
