Though I know full well
That the night will come again,

Yet, in truth, I hate the sight,
Of the morning's coming light.

Born in 972, he was a son of Tamemitsu and adopted by the latter's brother Kaneie.[1][2]

He served as commander of the guard, and although he died young he was considered a brilliant commander.[1] He died in 994.[1][2]


Poetry


Forty-eight of his poems were included in imperial anthologies, and he was listed as one of the Late Classical Thirty-Six Immortals of Poetry.[1][2]

The following poem by him was included as No. 52 in Fujiwara no Teika's Ogura Hyakunin Isshu:

Japanese text[3]Romanized Japanese[4]English translation[5]
明けぬれば
暮るるものとは
知りながら
なほうらめしき
朝ぼらけかな
Akenureba
kururu mono to wa
shiri-nagara
nao urameshiki
asaborake kana
As the sun rises
I know that when
it sets at night
I can see you again.
Yet even so, how hateful
Parting in this cold light of dawn.

A private collection of his poems, the Michinobu-shū (道信集), survives.[1][2]
