Sanekata Shū 60

At an archery competition, when snow had fallen upon the multi-coloured curtains, the Lay Priest Middle Councillor said:

まへかたのまだらまくなる雪みれば

maFe kata no
madaramaku naru
yuki mireba
The first team’s
Motley curtain
Snow swept I see, and

I concluded:

しりゑの山ぞおもひやらるゝ

siriwe no yama zo
omoFiyararuru
The mountain for the second team
Is in my thoughts.
