小倉百人一首
Fujiwara no Teika
1
And my sleeves are growing wet
Emperor Tenji
2
So they say, are spread to dry
Empress Jitou
3
Through this long, long-dragging night
Kakinomoto no Hitomaro
4
On Mount Fuji's lofty peak
Yamabe no Akahito
5
When I hear the lonely cry,
Sarumaru
6
Made white with a deep-laid frost,
Outomo no Yakamochi
7
That rose on Mount Mikasa
Abe no Nakamaro
8
And the world in which I live
The Monk Kisen
9
My life passes vainly by,
Ono no Komachi
10
Friends or strangers -- all must meet:
Semimaru
11
Will the fishing boats thronged here
Ono no Takamura
12
Then for a while I could detain
The Monk Henjou
13
So my love has grown to be
Emperor Youzei
14
That I have become confused;
Minamoto no Touru
15
While my garment's hanging sleeves
Emperor Koukou
16
Of the pine trees growing there,
Ariwara no Yukihira
17
That water gleamed with autumn red
Ariwara no Narihira
18
When in dreams I go to you,
Fujiwara no Toshiyuki
19
We must never meet again:
Lady Ise
20
Even though it costs my life
Prince Motoyoshi
21
Until the moon of daybreak,
The Monk Sosei
22
So they call this mountain wind
Fun\'ya no Yasuhide
23
Yet it's not for me alone,
Oue no Chisato
24
Here are brocades of red leaves,
Sugawara no Michizane
25
Hidden from people's gaze,
Fujiwara no Sadakata
26
They would longingly await
Fujiwara no Tadahira
27
I do not know if we have met:
Fujiwara no Kanesuke
28
Guests are gone, and leaves and grass
Minamoto no Muneyuki
29
Of the early autumn time,
Oushikouchi no Mitsune
30
I dislike nothing so much
Mibu no Tadamine
31
Yoshino's village lay
Sakanoue no Korenori
32
Yet it's only maple leaves,
Harumichi no Tsuraki
33
Why do the cherry's new-blown blooms
Ki no Tomonori
34
Even Takasago's pines
Fujiwara no Okikaze
35
The plum blossoms smell the same
Ki no Tsurayuki
36
To what region of the clouds
Kiyohara no Fukayabu
37
How the myriad unstrung gems
Fun\'ya no Asayasu
38
And his life, who is forsworn,
Lady Ukon
39
But it is too much to bear
Minamoto no Hitoshi
40
And now he questions me:
Taira no Kanemori
41
When people should not have known
Mibu no Tadami
42
Over Sue's Mount of Pines
Kiyohara no Motosuke
43
My passion is now as if
Fujiwara no Atsutada
44
And I doubt that she or I
Fujiwara no Asatada
45
Now my folly's fitting end
Fujiwara no Koremasa
46
Where, over the deep of love,
Sone no Yoshitada
47
Comes the dreary autumn time:
The Monk Egyou
48
And crushed upon the shore,
Minamoto no Shigeyuki
49
Dull in ashes through the day --
Ounakatomi no Yoshinobu
50
But now it is my heart's desire
Fujiwara no Yoshitaka
51
That the love I feel for her
Fujiwara no Sanekata
52
Still, in truth, I hate the sight
Fujiwara no Michinobu
53
Can you realize at all
The Mother of//Fujiwara no Michitsuna
54
It would be well this very day
The Mother of//Fujiwara no Korechika, Lady Kishi
55
Yet, in name it ever flows,
Fujiwara no Kintou
56
Let me remember only this:
Lady Izumi Shikibu
57
Because the midnight moon
Lady Murasaki Shikibu
58
I will be just as steadfast
Daini no Sanmi, Lady Kataiko
59
Till I saw the lonely moon
Lady Akazome Emon
60
And neither have I beheld
Lady Koshikibu
61
In our nine-fold palace court
Lady Ise no Ousuke
62
But at Osaka's gateway
Lady Sei Shounagon
63
If I could, I'd come to you
Fujiwara no Michimasa
64
From the shallows to the deep,
Fujiwara no Sadayori
65
Worse than hate and misery
Lady Sagami
66
Except for you, lonely friend,
Abbot Gyouson
67
This innocent dream pillow
Lady Suou
68
Let me remember only
Emperor Sanjou
69
Which turn Tatsuta River
The Monk Nouin
70
Everywhere it is the same:
The Monk Ryousen
71
And, into my round rush-hut,
Minamoto no Tsunenobu
72
If I should go near that shore.
Lady Kii
73
Oh, let the mountain mists
Oue no Masafusa
74
As pitiless and as cold
Minamoto no Toshiyori
75
Yet the year has passed away,
Fujiwara no Mototoshi
76
That the white waves, far away,
Fujiwara no Tadamichi
77
Though divided, on it rushes,
Emperor Sutoku
78
At the cries of sanderlings,
Minamoto no Kanemasa
79
That, with drifting autumn wind,
Fujiwara no Akisuke
80
And now my daylight thoughts
Lady Horikawa
81
The only thing I found
Fujiwara no Sanesada
82
But I cannot keep my tears;
The Monk Douin
83
In the mountains' farthest depths;
Fujiwara no Toshinari
84
Just as past time filled with grief
Fujiwara no Kiyosuke
85
And now the bedroom shutters
The Monk Shun\'e
86
Lifting up my troubled face,
The Monk Saigyou
87
That still hold the dripping wet
The Monk Jakuren
88
Must I forever long for him
Attendant to Empress Kiyoko
89
All I do to hide my love
Princess Shokushi
90
Though wet through and wet again,
Attendant to Empress Ryoushi
91
While all through the frosty night
Fujiwara no Yoshitsune
92
Never for a moment dry,
Lady Sanuki
93
Of the little fishing boat
Minamoto no Sanetomo
94
The ancient village shivers:
Fujiwara no Masatsune
95
And though I am unworthy,
Abbot Jien
96
What withers and falls away
Fujiwara no Kintsune
97
All my being is aflame,
Fujiwara no Teika
98
Not a sign of summer left
Fujiwara no Ietaka
99
To me, with all my sadness,
Emperor Gotoba
100
But numerous as they are,
Emperor Juntoku
