A poem composed at a poetry competition held by Her Majesty, the Empress, during the Kanpyō period.
秋の野の草のたもとか花すすきほにいでてまねく袖と見ゆらむ
| aki no no no kusa no tamoto ka Fana susuki Fo ni idete maneku sode to miyuran |
In the autumn fields Does the grass have cuffs Of flowering miscanthus? The ripe ears are beckoning Sleeves, or so they seem. |
Ariwara no Muneyana
