GSS XII: 808

Sent to a woman.

ひたすらに厭ひ果てぬる物ならば吉野の山に行方知られじ

Fitasura ni
itoFiFatenuru
mono naraba
yosino no yama ni
yukuwe sirarezi
So completely
Am I to be despised-
If ’tis true, then
On the mount of Yoshino
I’ll find a place and tell no one!

The Posthumous Grand Minister, [Fujiwara no Tokihira] (871-909)
