Love 72

Left (Tie).

せめておもふ今一度のあふことは渡らん河や契なるべき

semete omou
ima hitotabi no
au koto
wa
wataran kawa ya
chigiri narubeki
Do I feel, at least,
Now, once more
To meet with you, that
I would cross death’s river from
The bond we share?

Right (Tie).

かきやりしその黑髪のすぢごとにうち臥すほどは面影ぞたつ

kakiyarishi
sono kurokami
no
sujigoto ni
uchifusu hodo wa
omokage zo tatsu
I combed
Your black tresses
Strand by strand;
Now I lay me down alone,
Your face stands out before me.
