Left (Tie)

けさはまたそれともみえず淡路島霞のしたに浦風ぞ吹く

kesa wa mata
sore tomo miezu
awajishima
kasumi no shita ni
urakaze zo fuku
This morning, once again,
I cannot that clearly see
Awaji Isle, but
Beneath the haze
The winds are blowing o’er the beach!

Right

春霞なびく朝けの塩風にあらぬけぶりや浦に立つらん

harugasumi
nabiku asake no
shiokaze ni
aranu keburi ya
ura ni tatsuran
Spring haze
Trails over with the morn—
Salt-fire breezes
It is not, yet does smoke
Seem to rise across the bay?

Both Left and Right don’t seem bad. I make them a tie.
