さむしろに衣かたしきこよひもや恋しき人にあはでのみ寝む
samushiro ni
koromo katashiki
koyoi mo ya
koishiki hito ni
awade nomi nemu | Beneath the flimsy cover
Of a single spread garment
Will I once again, tonight
Without my beloved’s
Company simply sleep? |
The woman
Love Interrupted by a Single Night 隔一夜恋
さむしろに衣かたしきわぎも子がひとりやぬらんそはさぐりつつ
samushiro ni
koromo katashiki
wagimoko ga
hitori ya nuran
so wa saguritsutsu | Beneath the flimsy cover
Of a single spread garment
Does my darling
Sleep alone?
Constantly, I reach for her… |
