Imoseyama mine no arashi ya samukaramu koromo karigane sora ni naku nari - Kinyo Wakashu(English Translation & Meaning)

妹背山峰の嵐や寒からむ
衣かりがね空に鳴くなり

Roma-ji: Imoseyama mine no arashi ya samukaramu koromo karigane sora ni naku nari
English Translation: Upon Imoseyama
is the storm along its peaks
bitter cold tonight,
for wishing to borrow robes
the wild geese cry in the sky
Meaning: Is the storm on the peaks of Mount Imose so cold? The wild geese cry in the sky as if begging to borrow a robe.
Commentary: Book Three Autumn Poems 221

Perhaps the storm on the peaks of Mount Imose is cold, for the wild geese cry in the sky as though asking to borrow a robe. Putting into karigane the sense of borrowing a robe, the poem playfully depicts geese crying in the cold.
Standing beside the preceding poem, 220, it sings of the cries of wild geese, and the two make a pair.
Poems 220 and 221 in this book are poems on the wild geese, singing of their cries as they cross the sky.
The author, Kinzane, is Fujiwara no Kinzane. A son of Fujiwara no Sanesue, he rose to Provisional Major Counselor and also served as Master of the Crown Prince's Household. He was an active poet in the circle of Emperor Horikawa.

First line, 'imoseyama', is a poetic place in Kii, where Mount Imo and Mount Se face each other across the Ki River.
Second line, 'mine no arashi ya', means the storm on the peaks, and the particle ya binds with mu in the third line.
Third line, 'samukaramu', means is it cold. The poem breaks after the third line.
Fourth line, 'koromo karigane', is a pivot word in which kari means both 'borrowing' a robe and the kari of karigane, wild geese, giving the conceit of geese crying to borrow robes against the cold.
Final line, 'sora ni naku nari', uses the auditory inferential nari: I hear them crying in the sky.
