Composed at court, as a poem with zo as the last syllable, on the topic of ‘the mountains, dyed in autumn.’
もみぢ葉の色をたづねて入る人も思はぬ山を思ふらむやぞ
momidiba no iro wo tadunete iru Fito mo omoFanu yama wo omoFuramu ya zo |
Autumn leaves’ Colours seeking In the mountains, do such folk All unthinking Dwell on life among the peaks? |
