Kokin rokujō V: 2538

When beginning to talk.

おもひつつまだいひそめぬわがこひをおなじこころに人はしらなむ

omoitsutsu
mada iisomenu
wa ga koi o
onaji kokoro ni
hito wa shiranamu
Ever are you in my passionate thoughts,
Though we have yet to speak
I would my love
You would feel within your heart as I—
That’s what I would have you know!
