ひたすらにわが思はなくにおのれさへ
かりかりとのみ鳴きわたるらん

Roma-ji: Hitasura ni waga omowanaku ni onore sae karikari to nomi nakiwataruran
English Translation: It is not as though
I think on it single-heartedly,
yet why should you, too,
cry out "kari, kari" only
as you go crossing the sky
Meaning: It is not as though I dwell on it single-mindedly, so why should you, too, cry nothing but "kari, kari"—"only for a while"—as you cross the sky?
Commentary: Book Seven Autumn Poems III 364

Headnote: "Topic unknown."
The poet asks why, when one does not dwell on it so single-mindedly, the geese too must cross the sky crying nothing but "kari, kari." Their cries press still harder on a heart already mindful of the transience of the world and of love.
It is the third of the poems, beginning with 362, that hear the geese's cry as "kari," transient.
The poet is listed as "anonymous," and the composer's name has not come down to us.

The first line, "Hitasura ni," means "single-mindedly, wholly."
In the second line, "naku ni" means "though it is not": "though I do not think so."
In the third line, "onore" refers to the geese: "even you."
In the fourth line, "kari" is a pivot word meaning both the "wild goose" and "kari," temporary; the words are the same as the last line of 362 of this book.
In the last line, "ran" is an auxiliary conjecturing the cause: "why do you go crossing, crying so?"
