This world of men
Is a hard place, is it not?
Folk's words
Saying this and that
Spread rumours, causing pain.

世中はかくこそ有りけれ吹く風のめに見ぬ人もこひしかりけり yo no naka Fa kaku koso arikere Fuku kaze no me ni minu Fito mo koFisikarikeri This world of men Is such a place: The gusting wind, Invisible, as she I’ve never seen And yet do love. Ki no Tsurayuki - 紀貫之 in the KOKINSHŪ - KKS XI: 475
