When he had not served at Court for some time and was in seclusion at a mountain retreat, he composed:
おく山のいはがきもみぢちりぬべしてる日のひかり見る時なくて
| oku yama no iFagaki momidi tirinubesi teru Fi no Fikari miru toki nakute |
Deep within the mountains Hard against crags the Autumn leaves Must have fallen; Light from the shining sun Is blotted out. |
