From a poetry match held by the Reikeiden Junior Consort and Chūjō Lady of the Bedchamber during the reign of the Tenryaku Emperor.
春霞立ちなへだてそ花ざかりみてだにあかぬ山のさくらを
| Farugasumi tati na Fedate so Fanazakari mite dani akanu yama no sakura wo | O, haze of spring, Arising, do not block The flowers’ profusion, for Even of the sight I cannot get my fill Of mountain cherry blossoms… |
