「関屋(The Gatehouse)」の和歌  

和  歌 サイデンステッカーさんの英訳
1 行くと来とせきとめがたき涙をや絶えぬ清水と人は見るらむ It flowed as I went, it flows as I return,
The steady crystal spring at the barrier rise.
2 わくらばに行きあふ道をたのみしも猶かひなしやしほならぬ海 By chance we met, beside the gate of meeting.
A pity its fresh waters should be so sterile.
3 あふさかの関やいかなる関なればしげきなげきの中をわくらん The gate of meeting, atop the barrier rise,
Is shaded by impassable wailing groves.
