Sanekata Shū 256

When I had gone to Kogawa, a lady’s father, thinking I was Governor of Ki:

風はやみ吹上の濱のかたさらに思こゝろにくらべても見む

kaze Fayami
Fukiage no Fama no
kata sara ni
omoFu kokoro ni
kurabete mo mimu
Fierce is the wind
Across the beach at Fukiage
Strand, yet
With my thought-filled heart
Compare it—why don’t you!
