| wa ga yado no kakine ni sakeru unohana no uki koto shigeki yo ni koso arikere | At my house Upon the brushwood fence bloom Deutzia flowers— Sad things, alone, grow well Indeed, in this world of ours! [i] |
[i] An allusive variation on: On blossom. うぐひすのかよふかきねのうのはなのうきことあれやきみがきまさぬ uguisu no / kayou kakine no / unohana no / uki koto are ya / kimi ga kimasanu ‘The warbler / Flits around my brushwood fence’s / Deutzia blooms— / Is there some sad event which / Stops my Lord from coming?’ Anonymous (MYS X: 1988).
