History (Takahashi Yujiro):
| Yamanaka wa samong the best of numerous hot-spring resorts on the Noto Peninsula, thus a major domestic tourist attraction. This is a "parlour song" for geisha to sing to or with vacationing clients as intimate entertainment. Never forget the road to Yamanaka: to the east, Pine Mountain; to the west, Mt. Yakushi. In the valley, the sound of rushing water; on the peak, a storm; in between, at Yamanaka, the aroma of the hot baths. (From Mt. Yakushi I can see all of Yamanaka at a glance; why can't I see into his heart?) haa wasureshansu na Yamanaka michi o, higash'ya Matsuyama nish'ya Yakushi // tani n'ya mizuoto, mine ni wa arashi, ai no Yamanaka yu no nioi. |
