Autumn leaves
Autumn leaves are visible in the mountains illuminated by the autumn sunset.
There are dark colors, light colors, and various colors.
The maple, ivy, which colors the pine,
It adds color to the foot of the mountain.
Maple leaves fall into the river flowing through the valley.
The waves are shaking, leaving and approaching.
Various colors of red and yellow
Are woven on the water.
