KYS II: 91

Composed on the conception of love at the end of the Third Month.

春はをし人はこよひとたのむればおもひわづらふ今日のくれかな

Faru Fa wosi
Fito Fa koyoi to
tanomureba
omoFiwazuraFu
keFu no kure kana
Regretting the departure of spring, and
Tonight, my man
Expecting,
Wracked with painful thoughts
Does today reach its dusk!

The Minister of the Centre
