Winter 41

Left (Tie).

冬きては一夜二夜を玉ざゝの葉分の霜の所せきまで

fuyu kite wa
hito yo futa yo o
tama zasa no
hawake no shimo no
tokoro seki made
Winter has been here
For but a night or two, yet
Part the bamboo grass
Fronds and frost
Is all there is to find.

Right

晴曇おなじながめのたのみだに時雨にたゆる遠の里人

harekumoru
onaji nagame no
tanomi dani
shigure ni tayuru
ochi no satobito
The clear sky clouding over,
As I gaze lost into the distance:
Even such longings
Cease with the showers,
O, my distant darling.
