SKKS VII: 738

Composed on the spirit of Felicitation.

きみがよはちよともさゝじあまのとやいづる月日のかぎりなければ

kimi ga yo wa
chi yo to mo sasaji
ama no to ya
izuru tsuki hi no
kagiri nakereba
My Lord’s reign will last
A thousand years, or more, I cannot say; as
From the doors of heaven
Emerge the sun and moon
Without end.

Master of the Dowager Empress’ Household Office Toshinari
藤原俊成
