A poem composed by Prince Takechi on the occasion of the funeral of Princess Tōchi.
山吹の立ちよそひたる山清水汲みに行かめど道の知らなく
yamabuki no tatiyosopitaru yamasimidu kumi ni yukamedo miti no siranaku |
Kerria Stand adorning The mountain streams Where I would go gathering, but The way I know not… |
Prince Takechi (654? – 696)
