Oeyama ikunonomichi no tookereba mada "fumi" mo mizu ama no "hashidate" (Mt. Oe and the road that goes to Ikuno are far away, so I have neither seen a "letter" from, nor "travelled by foot" there to Amano "hashidate" [In this poem, "fumi" means both a "letter" and to "travel by foot," and although Amano-Hashidate is a place, the "hashidate" is also a reference to the "ladder" to heaven])
