Koresada shinnō-ke uta’awase 4

朝ごとに山にたちまふ朝霧は紅葉みせじとをしむなりけり

asagoto ni
yama ni tachimau
asagiri wa
momiji miseji to
oshimu narikeri
With every morning
Twining round the mountains
The morning mists – that
They cannot reveal the scarlet leaves
Is regrettable, indeed!

秋の夜は人をしづめてつれづれと掻きなす琴の音にぞたてつる

aki no yo wa
hito o shizumete
tsurezure to
kakinasu koto no
ne ni zo tatetsuru
On an autumn night
When folk are all abed,
Idly
Plucked a zither’s
Strains sound out.
