【 Episode ～ Enjoy Japan! ～ 】
The author of this poem is Nukata-no-Okimi, a female poet who lived in the mid-7th century. This beautiful poem, which expresses the feelings of waiting for a lover, is delicate, leaves a lingering sense of loneliness, and is included in the “Manyoshu” – Japan’s oldest collection of poetry.

“Manyoshu” is Japan’s oldest anthology of “Waka-poetry”, believed to have been completed around the end of the 8th century. Spanning a period of approximately 130 years, its 20 volumes contain over 4,500 poems composed by people from all walks of life – ranging from emperors and aristocrats to low-ranking officials, soldiers, courtesans, farmers, and even beggars – with origins stretching across the country from north to south. It is considered an invaluable resource for understanding the daily lives of the people of that era.
