SZS XIII: 793

Composed as a love poem, when he held a poetry match at his residence, when he was a Middle Captain.

わが恋はあまのかるもにみだれつつかわく間もなきなみのした草

wa ga koFi Fa
ama no karu mo ni
midaretutu
kawaku ma mo naki
nami no sitagusa
My love is as
Seaweed reaped by fisherfolk
Ever tangled, and
Not a moment dry,
Weeds beneath the waves…

Supernumerary Middle Counsellor Toshitada
