SIS IV: 248

For a painting on a folding screen of the white mountains of Koshi.

我ひとりこしの山ぢにこしかども雪ふりにける跡を見るかな

ware Fitori
kosi no yamadi ni
kosikadomo
yuki Furinikeru
ato wo miru kana
I, alone,
To the mountain paths o’er Koshi
Have come, yet
Signs that snow has fallen
Do I see!

Lord Fujiwara no Suketada
