わが宿にまたこむ人も見るばかり
折りなつくしそ山吹の花

Roma-ji: Waga yado ni mata kon hito mo miru bakari ori na tsukushi so yamabuki no hana
English Translation: Here at my dwelling
so that those who come again
may see them as well,
do not pick them all away,
these the yellow kerria blooms
Meaning: Leave enough at my house for those who come again to see them; do not break off every one of these yellow kerria blossoms.
Commentary: Book One Spring Poems 76

The poet asks someone breaking off sprays of kerria at his house not to take them all, so that those who come later can see them too. Poems on the kerria continue from here.

First line, 'waga yado ni', means at my house.
Second line, 'mata kon hito mo', are people who will come again later.
Third line, 'miru bakari', means enough to be seen, expressing degree.
Fourth line, 'ori na tsukushi so', uses na ... so to form a prohibition: do not break them all off.
Final line, 'yamabuki no hana', ends on a noun, and the kerria sequence begins here.
