A poem from One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each (Hyakunin isshu

, 百人一首) by Fujiwara no Teika.

Translated by Peter MacMillan.

49. Onakatomi no Yoshinobu

This troubled heart of mine
is like the watch fire of the guards
of the palace gate –
it fades to embers by day,
but blazes up again each night.

I guess the original version in Japanese should be more beautiful.
