On the sands of Sanuki's shore
folk gather fine seaweed,
and the eye never wearies of this fair land,
...
By the Karu road,
under the mallard’s flyway,
my love, my sister,
lived in her small town,
and deep desire
to see her filled my soul.
...
...
On the sea at Ômi,
Plovers fly the waves at dusk
And with their cries
My mind is turned
...
Coarse woven cloth
The beach at Fujie:
Catching sea bass,
A fisherman, is that what I'll seem?
...
From uncountable
Ôtsu, she came and,
On the day I met her,
Glanced at her but briefly,
...
On this autumn mountain
Tumbling yellowed leaves
For just a moment
Cease your scattering
...
The sea at Kehi
Appears most tranquil, for
As harvested wild rice
...
To the far-reaching
Heavens has gone
My prince, so
Unaware of passing days and nights
...
A twist of folded grass, your pillow,
The only lodging on your journey;
Whose husband, I wonder?
Though in your land, forgotten
...
By Kara's cape
(what sea-babble Kara hears)
...
