SZS XI: 661

Composed as a Love poem, when he composed a hundred poem sequence.

人知れぬ木の葉の下のむもれ水思ふ心をかき流さばや

Fito sirenu
ko no Fa no sita no
mumore midu
omoFu kokoro wo
kaki nagasaba ya
Unknown to all
Beneath the leaves upon the trees
Flows a secret spring-
The feelings within my heart
I spell out for you.

The Minister of the Right [Fujiwara no Sanesada]
