崇徳院
すとくいん
瀬を早み 岩にせかるる 滝川の
われても末に 逢はむとぞ思ふ
歌意
川の流れが速いので、岩にせき止められた急流が一度２つに分かれても、また１つになるように、私たちも今は離れ離れでも、将来は必ず一緒になろうと思う。
English Translation
Like the rapids' flow
Dashed upon the rocks and blocked;
Though we are parted now,
I am sure that we shall meet,
Just as these waters meet again.
Dashed upon the rocks and blocked;
Though we are parted now,
I am sure that we shall meet,
Just as these waters meet again.
