Composed in a fifty poem sequence at the house of the Monk Prince Shukaku.
おほぞらはむめのにほひにかすみつゝくもりもはてぬ春のよの月
| ôzora wa mume no nioi ni kasumitsutsu kumori mo hatenu haru no yo no tsuki |
In the firmament The scent of plum Is in the spreading haze; The clouds have yet to cover The moon on this spring night. |
