Looking at Mount Fuji in the Distance
Since heaven and earth parted,
godlike, lofty, and noble
in Suruga, Fuji the lofty peak —
as I turn and look at the Plain of Heaven,
the light of the coursing sun is hidden behind it,
the shining moon's rays can't be seen,
white clouds can't move, blocked,
and regardless of time, the snow's falling.
We'll tell, we'll go on talking
about Fuji, this lofty peak.
ENVOY
Coming out on the beach of Tago, I look: pure white — on Fuji the lofty peak, the snow's
falling
