Notes
- Nagisa Residence
- Near modern-day Osaka's Nagisahon-machi, on the Yodo river. According to the Tales of Ise this was a residence of Prince Koretaka. The Tosa Diary also indicates that Koretaka and Narihira were together for this poem. KKS 418 and KKS 884 mention Narihira in attendance on Koretaka so there is no major reason to doubt that applies here as well.
- Did not exist at all
- Quite a few manuscripts of the KKS, as well as some versions of the poem in alternate sources, reads saka-zara-ba "did not bloom at all." Because this is it the version of the poem in Ki no Tsuyaruki's Tosa Diary, some scholars have suggested this is a better reading (on aesthetic grounds as well). But Katagiri notes that Tsurayuki's Shinsen waka reads "exist" instead of "bloom," so it's difficult to say on the current evidence which reading is the original one.
- The hearts of spring season
- The expression haru no kokoro may refer to the feelings of people towards (or in) spring, the nature of spring itself, or some combination of both.
Other sources:
- Shinsen waka | Kokin waka rokujō | Wakan rōeishū
- Kuhin waka | Kingyokushū | Sanjū rokunin sen | Korai fūteishō
