心は君に寄りにしものを

Roma-ji: Imasara ni nani o ka omowamu uchinabiki kokoro wa kimi ni yorinishi mono o
English Translation: What, now, at this point,
is there left for me to fret;
like bending grasses
all my heart has leaned to you
and has settled there for good
Meaning: What is there left to fret about now? Like grasses bending in the wind, my heart has leaned toward you and come to rest with you.
Commentary: Book Four Love Poems 505

Headnote: "Two poems by Abe no Iratsume"
Since her heart has leaned wholly toward her lover, the poet asks what is left to fret over, declaring an unshakable love. She renders the heart's leaning toward him with uchinabiki, the bending of grasses in the wind, and one feels the resolve of a woman who has put her doubts aside.
The author, Abe no Iratsume, was a woman poet of around the early Nara period, apparently of the Abe clan, though little else is known of her.

First line, "What, now, at this point," means now that things have come to this, showing that her mind is already made up.
Second line, "is there left for me to fret," uses the rhetorical ka: what should I worry over? Nothing. It closes in the attributive of mu, and the poem breaks after this line.
Third line, "like bending grasses," uses the prefix uchi with nabiku, the bending of plants in the wind, for a heart that leans toward the beloved.
Fourth line, "all my heart has leaned to you," means my heart, to you, naming plainly where her feelings go.
Fifth line, "and has settled there for good," uses the perfective nu and the past ki: it has already drawn close to you. Mono o gives the reason while adding a note of feeling.
