Composed at the Poetry Match held at the Residence of the Uji Former Grand Minister.

山ざくらさきそめしより久かたの雲井にみゆるたきのしらいと

yamazakura sakisomeshi yori hisakata no kumoi ni miyuru taki no shira’ito

Since the mountain cherries Have begun to bloom, The eternal Clouds seem Threaded with a waterfall of white.
