Round Thirty-Two

Left

いつとても身のうき事はかはらねど昔は老をなげきやはせじ

itsu tote mo
mi no uki koto wa
kawaranedo
mukashi wa oi o
nageki ya wa seji
Ever does
My suffering remain
Unchanged, yet
Long ago, my age
Surely, was not a source of grief.

Right (Win)

かくばかりうき世の中もすてはてんと思ふになればかなしかりけり

kaku bakari
ukiyo no naka mo
sutehaten to
omou ni nareba
kanashikarikeri
Such a singular
Mundane world of suffering
To abandon completely
I have come to think, but
Still I am sad.

Kūnin

I feel that both are true, but the Right seems a little superior at present.
