SZS VI: 422

Composed on the conception of hawking, when he presented a hundred poem sequence during the reign of former Emperor Horikawa.

ふる雪にゆくへも見えずはし鷹のをぶさのすずのおとばかりして

Furu yuki ni
yukuwe mo miezu
Fasitaka no
wobusa no suzu no
oto bakari site
In the falling snow,
Where he’s gone I cannot see;
The sparrowhawk’s
Tail-jesses
Make the only sound.

Dharma Master Ryūgen
