Ōumi ni arashi na fuki so shinagadori ina no minato ni fune hatsuru made

大海にあらしな吹きそしなが鳥
猪名の港に舟泊つるまで

Roma-ji: Ōumi ni arashi na fuki so shinagadori ina no minato ni fune hatsuru made
English Translation: Upon the wide sea
do not blow, you stormy winds,
until at Ina,
where long-breathed birds dwell,
our boat is safe in harbor
Meaning: Stormy winds, do not blow upon the wide sea—not until our boat is safely moored in the harbor of Ina.
Commentary: Book Seven Miscellaneous Poems 1189

Headnote continued from the preceding poem: "Composed on Journeys"
The poet prays that no storm will blow on the open sea until the boat reaches the harbor of Ina. His earnest wish for a safe voyage takes the form of a command forbidding the storm.
It is one of the poems composed on journeys; the harbor of Ina is thought to be at the mouth of the Ina River in Settsu, near the plain of Inano sung in poem 1140 in this book. The poet is unknown.

The first line, "Upon the wide sea," names the open ocean.
The second line, "do not blow, you stormy winds," is a prohibition with "na ... so," and the poem pauses here.
The third line uses "shinagadori," a pillow word for "Ina," as in the first line of poem 1140.
The fourth line names the harbor at the mouth of the Ina River in Settsu.
The final line, "until ... our boat is safe in harbor," gives by inversion the limit of the prohibition.
