Horikawa-in enjo awase 19

つらきをば思ひはれじとおもへども身をしる雨の所せくかな

Your cruelty
Would never vanish from my thoughts,
I felt, but
The gentle rain knows me too well—
How unmanageable it is!

In reply.

おもはずにふりそふ雨の歎をばみかさの山をさしてちかはん

Unexpectedly,
Rainfall covers all
With grief, as
On Mount Mikasa, my umbrella
I raise as it draws near.
