Minatokaze itaku na fuki so shinagadori Ina no mizuumi fune tomuru made

湊風いたくな吹きそしなが鳥
猪名の湖舟泊むるまで

Roma-ji: Minatokaze itaku na fuki so shinagadori Ina no mizuumi fune tomuru made
English Translation: Wind of the harbour,
do not blow so fiercely now,
bird of long breath,
until on the lake of Ina
I can moor my little boat.
Meaning: Wind of the harbour, do not blow so hard, until I can moor my boat on the lake of Ina.
Commentary: Miscellaneous Poems 568

Headnote: "Mooring on a journey"
Until the boat can be moored on the lake of Ina, the poet begs the harbour wind not to blow hard. On the theme of lodging aboard a moored boat, it voices the unease of a boatman.
The Ruijū text places it among the "poems found in other and printed texts." It takes up the Man'yōshū phrase shinagadori Ina in an archaic manner.

Line 1 means "harbour wind."
Line 2 means "do not blow so hard," na ... so expressing prohibition, with a break after the line.
Line 3, shinagadori, is a pillow word for Ina.
Line 4 means "the lake of Ina," in Settsu.
Line 5 means "until I moor my boat," inverted to state the limit of the wish last.
