MYS VII: 1140

Composed in Settsu.

志長鳥 居名野乎来者 有間山 夕霧立 宿者無而

しながとりゐなのをくればありまやまゆふぎりたちぬやどりはなくて

sinagatori
winano wo kureba
arimayama
yupugiri tatinu
yadori pa nakute
A waterbird’s long cry
At Ina plain where I have come,
In the Arima Mountains
The evening mists have risen, and
No lodging is there for me…
