Love and Deer.
あきののに朝霧がくれ鳴くしかのほのかにのみやききわたりなん
In the autumn meadows
Hidden by the morning mist
Is that a stag’s bell
Simply faintly
I hear drifting across?

Love and Geese.
雲がくれ鳴きてゆくなる初雁のはつかにみてぞ人はこひしき
Hidden in the clouds,
Crying, goes
The first goose,
Faintly glimpsed and yet
I do love her so.

Love and Geese.
しのびあまりこひしきときはあまのはら空とぶかりのねになきぬべし
When secretly, too much to
Bear is my love, then as,
Across the plains of heaven
In the skies a’flying, the geese
Go crying, so will I.

Love and Tanabata.
七夕にあらぬわが身のなぞもかく年に稀なる人を待つらん
The Weaver Maid
My sorry self is not, but
Why is it that,
Rarely, but once a year,
That man’s visit I seem to await?

Topic unknown.
篝火にあらぬわが身のなぞもかく涙の河にうきてもゆらむ
A fisher’s torch
I’m not, so why does my sorry self
Yet
Upon a river of tears,
Burning, seem to drift along?

Love and Chrysanthemums.
消えかへりあるかなきかに物ぞおもふうつろふ秋の花のうへのしも
Should I vanish
Away or not,
Fills my gloomy thoughts—
Fading in autumn
With the frost upon the blooms…

Sakura blossoms on the ground in grass. Poem as in post.

On verdant carpet
Days beauty
Wind swept ebbs

Love and Chrysanthemums.
はなにより人の心ははつ霜のおきあへず色のかはるなりけり
By another blossom,
That man’s heart—
Even though the first frost
Has yet to fall at all—in passion’s hue
Has been completely changed…

Love and Pinks.
なでしこの花におきゐる朝露の玉さかにだに心へだつな
Upon the pink
In bloom has fallen
Morning dew;
Though we meet but rarely,
O, don’t wall off your heart from me!

Love and Silver-grass.
まつ人はこぬものゆゑに花すすきほに出でてねたき恋もするかな
The man I am awaiting
Has failed to come, so
As the silver-grass
Fronds emerge, jealously
Will I love on!

Love and Dew.
秋はぎのはなののすすき露をおもみおのれしをれてほにや出でなん
Where the autumn bush clover
Blooms, silver grass,
Weighed down by dew
Droops of its own, but
Might, somehow, the fronds reveal…

Love and Dew.
わが袖のなみだにもあらぬ露にだに萩の下ばは色に出でにけり
Upon my sleeves
‘Tis not tears, but
Dew, even as that
Makes the bush-clover’s underleaves
Take on such a hue.

Bedraggled plum blossoms in the rain
The snow is melting on contact, but the early plum and sakura are having a hard time keeping up with our seesawing weather.

Beaten plum
Bedraggled Spring
Snow melt
On fragile delight
All softly falling

Love and Dew.
色をだに袖よりつたふ下荻の忍びし秋の野べのゆふ露
Simply by their hues
Do my sleeves relate it:
The cogon grass below
Is hidden, but in the autumn
Meadows falls the sunset dew…

Love and the Rain.
ほととぎすまつよながらのさみだれにしげきあやめのねにぞ鳴きぬる
While the cuckoo
I await one night
In a summer shower,
Lush as sweet-flag
Roots grow my sobbing cries!

Love and the Rain.
ほととぎすきなくさつきの卯花のうきことのはのしげきころかな
The cuckoo
In the Fifth Month comes to call
From the deutzia blooms—
Only cold, cruel words
Grow lush for me these days!

Love and the Rain.
時鳥なくやさ月のさみだれのはれず物思ふ比にも有るかな
The cuckoo
Calls among the Fifth Month’s
Showers
Never clearing, gloomy thought
Truly fills this time!

Love and the Wind.
からころもすそあはぬつまに吹く風のめにこそみえね身にはしみけり
A Cathay robe’s
Solitary hem at the edge
Caught by the wind—
Invisible yet
Piercing deep within my flesh.

Love and the Wind.
あだし野の葛のうら吹く秋風の目にしみえねばしる人もなし
On Adashi Plain
The arrowroot’s underside is revealed
By the autumn wind,
Invisible to the eye, so
No one knows it’s there at all…

Love and Clouds.
しら雲のきえはきえなでなにしかもたつたの山の名のみたつらん
The clouds, so white, are
On the point of vanishing,
So why,
From Tatsuta Mountain
Should such rumours arise?

Love and the moon.
月影もさやにはみえずかきくらす心のやみのはれしやらねば
The moonlight
I cannot clearly see, for
Drawing in
The darkness in my heart
Never clears away, so…

Love and the moon.
かずならぬ身はうき雲のよそながら哀とぞおもふ秋のよの月
Unlike all those countless
Others, I, drifting with the clouds
So distant,
Feel so fondly for
The moon this autumn night.

Love beneath the moon.
わが袖におぼえず月ぞやどりけるとふ人あらばいかがこたへむ
Upon my sleeves,
Unexpectedly, the moon
Has taken lodging—
Were he to come to call,
How might I now respond?

On the moon, while waiting for a man.
まてとしもたのめぬ山も月は出でぬいひしばかりのゆふぐれの空
‘Wait for me,’ in such words
I trust, for from the mountains
The moon has emerged—
Lip-service alone from you
Beneath the evening skies…
