Here's the text and the translation by Ad Blankestijn (adblankestijn.blogspot.com/2016/03/hyakunin-isshu-one-hundred-poets-one_22.html):

Winds of heaven
blow shut the path
through the clouds
so that I can delay for a while
those beautiful girls

amatsukaze
kumo no kayoiji
fukitoji yo
otome no sugata
shibashi todomemu

天つ風
雲のかよひ路
吹きとぢよ
乙女のすがた
しばしとどめむ

"Eidon put ook uit mathrock, minimal music, jazz, etnische muziek... Hij zou perfect passen als support van Gogo Penguin, Battles of Dijf Sanders en kan op termijn misschien wel een plaats veroveren op zowel Rock Werchter als Gent Jazz of Couleur Café. Benieuwd hoe hij dit live brengt"
