水の如く。
流れゆく水の如く、しなやかに軽やかに、
自由に闊達に、その身に焦がす憤怒を流し。
花の如く。
野に咲く花の如く、密やかに晴れやかに、健やかに朗らかに、その想いは遠く故郷の空へ。
娘と分かたれた親と、親と分かたれた娘。二つの行き場のない想いはかの地にて出会う。
かたやその有り様に怒り、かたやその有り様を悲しみ、そして互いを憐れみ、魂を重ね合わせた。互いが互いを助けるように、互いが互いをいたわるように、二つの魂はあるがままに、混然と、整然と、その姿を一にする。
「斯様に利休は駒姫であり、駒姫は利休なのです」
この茶杓を利休と思い、この棗を駒姫と思い、あるがままに私たちを受け入れてくださった貴方様への想いを、今、この一席に込めて。
―――水の如く花の如く。

NA Localization:
Like water.
Let the anger that rages through you flow away freely, magnanimously, and gracefully...like flowing water.
Like flowers.
Let your thoughts return to your distant hometown, conjuring radiant and cheerful feelings...like a flower blooming in the field.
Parents who were separated from their daughter, and the daughter who was separated from her parents. The two sentiments which had nowhere to meet in this land.
One, enraged by its circumstance. The other, saddened by its state. Each pitied the other, and then their souls joined. They did so to aid one another, if they were comforting each other. The two souls united, as they were, in harmony and order.
"In this way, Komahime shall be Rikyu, and Rikyu shall be Komahime."
Think of this chashaku, this bamboo tea scoop, as Rikyu and this tea caddy as Komahime. We've put our gratitude to you, who accepted us as we are, into this session of tea.
...Like Water, Like Flowers.
Fan Translation:
Like water.
Let the anger, which was burned into your body, flow away freely, openly, gracefully, and easily, just like flowing water.
Like flowers.
Open your feelings to the sky of your distant homeland quietly, brightly, vigorously, and cheerfully, just like the flowers blooming in the field.
The parents who were separated from their daughter and the daughter who was separated from her parents. The two feelings with no where to go meet each other at that place.
One person was angry at their circumstance, the other was sad, and then, as they both pity the other, their souls overlap.
To help one another other, to sooth one another other, the two souls, as they are, become one in harmony and order.
"In this way, Komahime is Rikyū, and Rikyū is Komahime."
Think of this bamboo tea scoop as Rikyū and this tea caddy as Komahime, now, we have put our feelings for you, who accept us as we are, into this ceremony.
―――Like water, like flowers.
