藤原基俊
ふじわらのもととし
契りおきし させもが露を 命にて
あはれ今年の 秋もいぬめり
歌意
「恵みを与えよう」と約束してくださったお言葉を頼りにして生きてきましたが、むなしく今年の秋も過ぎていってしまうようです。
English Translation
Though your promise was
"Like the dew on moxa plant"
And, to me, was life;
Yet, alas! the year has passed
Even into autumn time.
"Like the dew on moxa plant"
And, to me, was life;
Yet, alas! the year has passed
Even into autumn time.
