恋ひ恋ひて 逢(ｱ)へる時だに 愛(ｳﾂｸ)しき 言尽(ｺﾄﾂ)くしてよ 長くと思(ｵﾓ)はば
If you think this love I have been falling in with you will never cease,
Give me every possible word of love at least when we meet, please.

大伴坂上郎女 (ｵﾎﾄﾓﾉｻｶｳﾍﾉｲﾗﾂﾒ)
(現代語訳)
恋しつづけて、せめて逢えた時くらいは、愛のこもったことばをあらん限り並べてください。(この恋が)長くとお思いならば。
If you think this love I have been falling in with you will never cease,
Give me every possible word of love at least when we meet, please.
