９月も半ばというのに、昼間の暑さは堪りません。でも確かに、日が落ちる頃から虫の声はにぎやかに聞こえてきます。どの虫が鳴いているのか、とかの区別は出来ないんですけど。

Although it is already mid-September, the lingering summer heat is quite intense in the daytime. However, sometimes I find myself listening to the sound of the insects eagerly in the evening. Unlike many Japanese, I can’t guess the kinds of insects from the sounds they make, though.
Rain had stopped/
Music of the insects/
Seen through the sunshine, it seems/
