Gazing at snow on the mountain pines in the morning (秋山望松雪)

おりもせず雲もかからぬ山のはに松の上なる雪をこそみれ

ori mo sezu kumo mo kakaranu yama no Fa ni matu no uFe naru yuki koso mire

Not descending The clouds cling not To the mountains’ edge where Upon the pines I clearly see the snow.

山のはのさやかに照れる朝には松にかかれる雪もみえける

yama no Fa no sayaka ni tereru asita ni Fa matu ni kakareru yuki mo miekeru

The mountains’ edge is Brightly shining In the morning: Clinging to the pines I can see the snow.
