GSS XV: 1090

When she was sunk in gloomy thought, having no regular man.

あまの住む浦漕ぐ舟のかぢをなみ世を海わたる我ぞ悲しき

ama no sumu
ura kogu Fune no
kadi wo nami
yo wo umi wataru
ware zo kanasiki
The fisherfolk live
Within the bay, rowing boats;
Without oars
They are all at sea-how cruel the world
Where I am sunk in sadness.

Ono no Komachi
小野小町
