Composed while he stood briefly in the shade of a tree at the Unrin In.
わび人のわきてたちよるこの本はたのむかげなくもみぢちりけり
wabibito no wakite tatiyoru ko no moto Fa tanomu kage naku momidi tirinikeri |
On his way to leave the world, a man Comes to rest Beneath the trees But he finds no shade For every Autumn leaf has fallen. |
