Composed in the conception of parting when he took part in a hundred-poem sequence.
別れても心へだつな旅ごろも幾重かさなる山路なりとも
wakarete mo kokoro Fedatu na tabigoromo ikuwe kasanaru yamadi naritomo |
We may part, yet Let us not be strangers; Journey clothes Place layer on layer, Though mountain paths lie in-between. |
