SKKS I: 74

A spring poem, from the Poetry Contest in 1500 Rounds.

しら雲のたえまになびく青柳のかづらき山に春風ぞふく

shirakumo no
taema ni nabiku
aoyagi no
kazurakiyama ni
harukaze zo fuku
The clouds, so white,
Have rents, where trail
Green willows
‘pon the head of Kazuraki Mountain
Where gusts the breeze of spring!

Fujiwara no Masatsune
