From a poetry contest held in the Tenryaku era (947-957)
人づてにしらせてしかなかくれぬのみごもりにのみこひやわたらん
| hitozute ni shiraseteshi kana kakurenu no migomori ni nomi koi ya wataran |
In others’ whispers Should I let you know: That from a hidden Secret pool Love reaches out? |
Middle Councillor [Fujiwara no] Asatada (910-966)
