むこのうらの入江のすとりあさなあさなつねにみまくのほしき君かも
muko no ura no
irie no sutori
asana asana
tsune ni mimaku no
hoshiki kimi kamo | At the bay of Muko
Seabirds on the inlet’s sandbars
Every single morning
Always do I long to see—
That’s my desire of you! |

かもめゐるあら磯のすさき塩みちてかくろひゆけばまさるわが恋
kamome iru
ara’iso no susaki
shio michite
kakuroiyukeba
masaru wa ga koi | Seagulls dwell
Along the rocky shore where sandbars
With the rising tide
Are hidden away, then
Most intense is my love. |
