Composed on an occasion when people were gathered in the Thunder Court and composing poems in praise of autumn nights.
かくばかりをしと思ふ夜をいたづらにねてあかすらむ人さへぞうき
| kaku bakari osi to omoFu yo wo itadurani nede akasuran Fito saFe zo uki |
On such a Wonderful night, Spent idly Sleepless, the dawn Pains one all the more. |
Ōshikōchi no Mitsune (Fl. 898-922)
