Fubokushō IX: 3353

From the Six Volumes, on this topic.

花咲きし庭のあぢさゐあぢきなくなどてよひらに我をすてけん

hana sakishi
niwa no ajisai
ajikinaku
nado yohira ni
ware o suteken
The flowers blooming in
This garden—hydrangeas—
Why, unreasonably,
Do your fourfold petals, so completely
Seem to abandon me at night?

The Ikasa Minister of the Centre
