Right

いろいろにとり染めてけり立田姫はしむらごなる衣手の杜

iroiro ni torisometekeri tatsutahime hashi muragonaru koromode no mori

In a multitude of shades Has her dye taken; Princess Tatsuta stains The edges dark and light of The sacred grove at Koromode.

The Left has nothing remarkable about it, and its ending is old-fashioned, I think. The Right, too, seems to be in the eccentric style, and so it’s impossible for me to say anything else about either of them.
