をしめどもとまらぬ秋は常盤山もみぢはてぬとみてもゆるさじ

I regret it, yet
Autumn lingers not
Upon the evergreen mountains
The scarlet leaves have yet to end,
I see and would not let them go.

としごとにとまらぬ秋とおもひなばてもろき人もをしまざらまし

toshigoto ni
tomaranu aki to

If, that every single year
Autumn lingers not,
I did not think, then
Tear-filled folk
I would not have regret it.
