Kinkai wakashū 104

On geese flying over a place where the blossom was scattering, for a folding screen picture.

雁がねのかへる翅にかをるなり花をうらむる春の山かぜ

kari ga ne no
kaeru tubasa ni
kaoru nari
hana o uramuru
haru no yamakaze
Geese cry, as
Homeward bound, their wings
Are fragrant with
Blossom borne by the regretful
Mountain breeze in springtime.
A kuzushiji version of the poem's text.
