ハツさん、お加減はいかがですか、少しは眠れましたか。着替えと、ゆずのジャムを持ってきました。顔色はだいぶよくなりましたね。

ハツさん、おかげんはいかがですか、すこしはねむれましたか。きがえと、ゆずのジャムをもってきました。かおいろはだいぶよくなりましたね。

Hatsu, how are you feeling — have you managed to sleep a little? I've brought a change of clothes and some yuzu jam. Your color's much better.

ハツ

ありがとう、一日中寝てばっかりで、退屈で死にそうよ。歩くことはおろか、寝返りを打つのも、起き上がるのも、一人ではできんがやき、情けない。点滴ばっかりで、病院食は味が薄うて、食欲もわかん。

ありがとう、いちにちじゅうねてばっかりで、たいくつでしにそうよ。あるくことはおろか、ねがえりをうつのも、おきあがるのも、ひとりではできんがやき、なさけない。てんてきばっかりで、びょういんしょくはあじがうすうて、しょくよくもわかん。

Thank you — lying in bed all day, I'm bored to death. Never mind walking, I can't even turn over in bed or sit up on my own — it's pathetic. It's nothing but drips, and the hospital food is so bland I've no appetite.
