Upon the path of dreams
My feet don't rest,
Constantly trailing to you, yet
In reality, a single glimpse:
Not even that have I had of you.

Another translation by Kenneth Rexroth:

Although I come to you constantly
over the roads of dreams,
those nights of love
are not worth one waking touch of you.

Ono no Komachi
