Pronunciation Help for Waka Poetry

Hi all – I’m a chorus teacher (middle school – 12,13,14 year olds) in the states and I always try to program a song in a foreign language for each concert to expose the kids to different languages.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help make a quick audio recording (on [https://vocaroo.com/](https://vocaroo.com/) or something) on how to pronounce this Waka Poetry. I have a pronunciation guide but I know my students would appreciate someone who speaks Japanese well rather than my white-as-a-piece-of-copy-paper self fumbling through the sounds in an American accent.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
