On the moon: on suddenly awakening on passing through Nakayama in Saya and remembering the poem ‘Travelling Early in the Morning’ by Tu Mu.
馬に寢て殘夢月遠し茶のけぶり
| uma ni nete zanmu tsuki tôshi cha no keburi |
Dozing on my mount I start from sleep to see the distant moon, Smoke rising for morning tea. |
(1684)
