Composed on the conception of love, when hundred poem sequences were presented during the reign of former Emperor Horikawa.

おもひあまり人にとはばやみなせ川むすばぬ水に袖はぬるやと

omoFi’amari Fito ni toFaba ya minasegaFa musubanu midu ni sode Fa nuru ya to

Love consumes me and so I would ask her: Do the ever dry Minase River’s Intangible waters Yet soak your sleeves?

Major Counsellor Kinzane
