年ごとにかはらぬものは春霞
たつたの山のけしきなりけり

Roma-ji: Toshigoto ni kawaranu mono wa harugasumi tatsuta no yama no keshiki nari keri
English Translation: Year after year now
the thing that never changes
is the haze of spring
rising on Tatsuta's slopes,
that landscape, as I now see
Meaning: What never changes from year to year is the view of Mount Tatsuta, where the spring haze rises.
Commentary: Book One Spring Poems 10

The poet names the spring view of Mount Tatsuta, where haze rises, as the thing that stays the same every year. It is distinctive in treating Tatsuta, famous for autumn leaves, as a mountain of spring haze.
The author, Akisuke, is Fujiwara no Akisuke. A son of Fujiwara no Akisue, he rose to Master of the Western Capital Office. A poet of the Rokujō Fujiwara house, he compiled the Shikawakashū at the command of Retired Emperor Sutoku.

First line, 'toshigoto ni', means every year, referring to the scene of spring that returns again and again.
Second line, 'kawaranu mono wa', states the topic, with what never changes revealed below.
Third line, 'harugasumi', leads into tatsu, linking the rising of haze with the name Tatsuta.
Fourth line, 'tatsuta no yama no', is a famous place in Yamato; Tatsuta is a pivot word that also means the haze rises. Following 'Tokiwa's changeless hill' in poem 9, conceits drawn from mountain names stand side by side.
Final line, 'keshiki nari keri', uses keri for an exclamation, confirming with feeling the unchanging view of the spring mountain.
