Tōin senzai awase 04

Left – Asters

もろともにくさはうゑしをにしぞまづ秋のけぢかきいろはみえける本のまま

morotomo ni
kusa wa ueshi o
nishi zo mazu
aki no kejikaki
iro wa miekeru

Together
Did we plant these blooms, and
In the west, the first of
Autumn’s intimate
Hues have appeared.

すみのぼる月の光をしるべにてにしへもいそぐわがこころかな

suminoboru
tsuki no hikari o
shirube nite
nishi e mo isogu
wa ga kokoro kana

Clearly climbing,
The moon’s light
Is my guide, as
Swiftly to the west
Flies my heart!
