Translation

HNIS 96 -Former Chancellor and Lay Novice. It entices the flowers— / the storm—but though the garden’s white, / it is not snow, / and what it is that’s scattering / are, in fact, the years of my life!

HNIS 97 -Supernumerary Middle Counselor Teika. For the man who doesn’t come / I wait at the Bay of Matsuo— / in the evening calm / where they boil seaweed for salt, / I, too, burn with longing!

HNIS 98 -Ietaka of the Junior Second Rank. In the evening / when the wind rustles the oaks / at Nara-no-Ogawa, / it is the ablutions that are / the only sign it’s still summer! (Mostow 1996, pp. 424-430)
