The End of Autumn

Left

あきやまはからくれなゐになりにけりいくしほしぐれふりてそめけむ

akiyama wa

The autumn mountains
To Cathay scarlet
Have turned;
How many dippings with drizzle
Have fallen to dye them so?

Right (Win)

さほやまのははそのもみぢうすけれどあきはふかくもなりにけるかな

saoyama no

aki wa fukaku mo
narinikeru kana
On Sao Mountain
The oak trees autumn leaves
Are pale in hue, yet
Most deep has autumn
Become!
