Composed on a picture of a man making his way through chrysanthemums, going to a wizard’s palace in the moutains.

ぬれてほす山ぢの菊のつゆのまにいつかちとせを我はへにけむ

nurete Fosu yamadi no kiku no tuyu no ma ni itu ka titose wo ware Fa Fenikemu

Drenched, then drying On this mountain path with chrysanthemum Dewdrops—in that little space Has, somehow, a thousand years Passed me by?
