SKKS IV: 373

On the wind across the meadows, for the Poetry Match held at the Residence of the Hosshōji Lay Priest and Former Chancellor and Palace Minister.

たかまどののぢのしの原すゑさわぎそそや木がらしけふ吹きぬなり

takamado no
noji no shinohara
sue sawagi
soso ya kogarashi
kyō fukinu nari
At Takamado
Groves of dwarf bamboo by the roadside
Leaf-tips noisily
Rustling—O, the cold winter wind
Has begun to blow today.

Fujiwara no Mototoshi

A kuzushiji version of the poem's text.
