SKS IX: 337

Composed on the conception of the Song of the Everlasting Woe.

おもひかねわかれし野べをきてみればあさぢが原に秋かぜぞふく

omoFikane
wakaresi nobe wo
kitemireba
asadi ga hara ni
akikaze zo Fuku
Unable to bear my longing
To the meadows where we parted
Have I come and fixed my gaze, but
Across the cogon grass upon the plain
Indeed, the autumn wind is blowing.

Minamoto no Michinari
