GSIS IV: 258

Composed gazing at the moon over Hirosawa.

すむ人もなき山ざとのあきの夜は月のひかりもさびしかりけり

sumu Fito mo
naki yamazato no
aki no yo Fa
tuki no Fikari mo
sabisikarikeri
No folk dwell around
This mountain retreat, where
On an autumn night
The moon’s very light is
Filled with lonliness.

Lord Fujiwara no Norinaga
