## Description

Read 84 sacred tanka poems and an ordered prayer collection with four narrators, synchronized highlighting, downloadable offline audio, and serene imagery from Japan.

Tanka Poems is a quiet reading and listening space for sacred Japanese tanka poetry and prayer.

ALSO FULLY AVAILABLE IN BRAZILIAN PORTUGUESE

The complete Brazilian Portuguese edition includes all 84 poems and the full prayer collection, with synchronized text and narration by all four voices—Leonard, Rachel, Steven, and Lauren. Follow along with highlighting and switch between Portuguese and Japanese playback while preserving the original English and Japanese content.

READ SLOWLY
Explore 84 tanka poems in English and romanized Japanese, presented with careful typography and serene photography from Japan.

PRAY WITH THE BOOK
Move through a source-faithful prayer collection in its intended order, rendered as clear native text rather than page scans.

LISTEN YOUR WAY
Choose Leonard, Rachel, Steven, or Lauren for four distinct spoken readings. Choose Warm or Reflective prayer delivery—or turn prayer audio off. Synchronized word highlighting follows the narration, and any voice can be downloaded for offline listening.

A BOOK-LIKE READER
Turn pages with graceful book motion, adjust text size and reading font, choose Light, Dark, or System appearance, search the collection, and save poems for later.

BEGIN FREELY
Amatsu Norito, The Lord’s Prayer, and three selected poems remain free. A single, restorable in-app purchase unlocks the complete poetry and prayer collection permanently. There is no subscription.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account or sign-in is required. Tanka Poems contains no advertising, cross-app tracking, or behavioral analytics. Your reading position, saved poems, and preferences remain on your device.

Take a quiet moment. Read slowly. Listen closely.
