藤原興風
ふじわらのおきかぜ
誰をかも 知る人にせむ 高砂の
松も昔の 友ならなくに
歌意
私は誰を親しい友としようか。(長寿で知られる)高砂の松でさえ、昔からの友人ではないのだから。
English Translation
Whom then are there now,
In my age (so far advanced)
I can hold as friends?
Even Takasago's pines
Are not friends of former days.
In my age (so far advanced)
I can hold as friends?
Even Takasago's pines
Are not friends of former days.
