心のままに澄める月かな

Roma-ji: Nagori naku yowa no arashi ni kumo harete kokoro no mama ni sumeru tsuki kana
English Translation: Leaving not a trace,
swept away by midnight storms,
the clouds have cleared,
and just as it desires
the moon shines bright and clear
Meaning: The midnight storm has swept the clouds away without a trace, and the moon shines clear just as it pleases.
Commentary: Book Three Autumn Poems 199

Swept away by the midnight storm, the clouds have vanished without a trace, and the moon shines clear to its heart's content. The poem depicts the calm after the storm and the purity of the moon shining in a cloudless sky.
The fourth line, 'as its heart desires', is the same as the fourth line of poem 180 in this book; where poem 180 makes the moon one's own at will, this poem has the moon itself shine clear as it wills.
From poem 174 through poem 217 in this book a long sequence of moon poems follows, from the evening moon through the bright moon of the fifteenth night of the Eighth Month to the moon at dawn, singing of the moon in all its aspects and of the heart that gazes on it.

First line, 'nagori naku', means without a trace.
Second line, 'yowa no arashi ni', means in the midnight storm.
Third line, 'kumo harete', means the clouds having cleared, swept away by the storm.
Fourth line, 'kokoro no mama ni', means as it pleases, the same line as in poem 180 in this book.
Final line, 'sumeru tsuki kana', means ah, the moon shining clear, ru being the attributive form of the continuative ri.
