Composed when I was in one of the aisles of the Shōchōjuin on the night of the 14^th of the Seventh Month, and the moon was shining in.

ながめやる軒のしのぶの露の間にいたくなふけそ秋のよの月

nagameyaru noki no shinobu no tsuyu no ma ni itaku na fuke so aki no yo no tsuki

Gazing out upon The ferns beneath the eaves, In the space between the dewdrops, Do not set so, O, moon, this autumn night!
