Sanekata Shū 197

When I had gone to the house of the same Shōjō, and she had sent me home without meeting me.

命だにあらばたのまむ逢ふことのいといきがたきこゝちこそすれ

inoti dani
araba tanomamu
aFu koto no
ito ikigataki
kokoti koso sure
Long life
Had I, yearn
To meet with you I would, but
How hard it is to go on
Feeling as I do.
