MYS III: 290

[One of] two poems about the early moon by Hashihito no Ōura.

倉橋の山を高みか夜隠りに出で来る月の光乏しき

kurapasi no
yama wo takami ka
yogomori ni
idekuru tuki no
pikari tomosiki
Is it Kurahashi
Mountain’s height?
In the depths of night
The emerging moon’s
Light is feeble, indeed.

Hashihito no Ōura
間人大浦
