Sane’ie-shū 301

When a lady had dropped her hair-tie, I picked it up and passed it back to her.

あさねがみもとゆひそめししるしありてとけてみゆるをこころともがな

asanegami
motoyui someshi
shirushi arite
tokete miyuru o
kokoro to mogana
That your morning bed-hair
You had started to do up
Is this a sign, but
I would see you loosen it
Together with your heart!

Fujiwara no Sane’ie (1145-1193)
