SZS VI: 420

Composed when he had gone to the Uji River.

朝ぼらけ宇治の川ぎり絶々にあらはれ渡る瀬々の網代木

asaborake
udi no kaFagiri
taedae ni
araFarewataru
sese no aziroki
At the dawn
The mists across Uji River
Fade in and out
Drifting across
The fishing nets in the rapids.

Middle Councillor [Fujiwara no] Sadayori (995-1045)
