“なるかみの, すこしとよみて,
さしくもり,
あめもふらぬか,
きみをとどめむ
[A faint clap of thunder,
Clouded skies,
Perhaps rain will come.
If so, will you stay here with me?]
なるかみの,すこしとよみて,
ふらずとも,
わはとどまらむ,
いもしとどめば
[A faint clap of thunder,
Even if rain comes or not,
I will stay here,
Together with you.]
万葉集 11, 2514 - 2513 (Man'yōshū vol. 11, verse 2514 - 2513)”
