Headnote: "When I went to call at that moving dwelling and saw this poem, I wrote one beside it"
When Taikenmon'in no Hyōe visited the moving dwelling of the Lady Chūnagon and saw Saigyō's poem written there, she added this beside it. Hyōe is sometimes said to have been the younger sister of the Lady Chūnagon. This is the dwelling of one lured by the stormy wind to leave her home, resolved not to remain in this weary world, she says, taking up the storm of the preceding poem.

First line, “ukiyo oba”: this weary world.
Second line, “arashi no kaze ni”: arashi is a pivot word joining storm and araji, I will not stay, taking up 'arashi no oto' of the preceding poem.
Third line, “sasowarete”: lured, led by the stormy wind to renounce the world.
Fourth line, “ie o idenishi”: having left home, that is, having taken vows.
Fifth line, “sumika to zo miru”: zo is answered by miru; so I see this dwelling.
