Akikaze wa suzushiku narinu uma namete iza no ni yukana hagi no hana mi ni

秋風は涼しくなりぬ馬並めて
いざ野に行かな萩の花見に

Roma-ji: Akikaze wa suzushiku narinu uma namete iza no ni yukana hagi no hana mi ni
English Translation: The autumn wind now
has grown cool upon the air;
riding side by side,
come, let's go out to the fields
to see the bush clover bloom!
Meaning: The autumn wind has grown cool. Come, let us ride out side by side to the fields to see the bush clover in bloom!
Commentary: Book Ten Autumn Miscellaneous Poems 2103

Headnote continued from the preceding poem: "On Flowers"
This poem invites companions to ride out side by side to the fields to see the bush clover now that the autumn wind has grown cool. The joy of an autumn outing to view bush clover shows in its lively tone. Whereas the group of outing poems from 1880 in the spring section sang of pleasures in the spring fields, this poem sings of pleasures in the autumn fields, a correspondence of spring and autumn.

The first line, "the autumn wind," marks the theme.
In the second line, "suzushiku narinu," "nu" marks completion, and the poem breaks here.
The third line, "uma namete," lining up our horses, is a phrase used as a pillow word in 1859.
In the fourth line, "iza no ni yukana," "iza" is a word of invitation and "na" a particle of intention or urging.
The last line, "to see the bush clover blossoms," gives by inversion the purpose at the end.
