われやうき人をこひぢになりぬればあはぬとだえに身をぞなしつる

ware ya uki hito o koiji ni narinureba awanu todae ni mi o zo nashitsuru

I, toward a heartless Lady upon the paths of love Did tread, but As a broken bridge, no meeting Has befallen me!

ひたすらにわすれもぞするわすれぐさみずやあらましこひはしぬとも

hitasura ni wasure mo zo suru wasuregusa mizu ya aramashi koi wa shinu tomo

So completely Am I forgotten by that Forgetful day-lily— She will not see me, it seems, Though I die of love for her.
