【說明】
此首和歌記錄了面對前來探病者時的心境，流露出對他人關懷的感激。1975年自京都大學退休後，湯川秀樹罹患攝護腺癌並接受手術治療，自此多在家中休養度日。
【Description】
This waka records Yukawa Hideki’s state of mind when receiving visitors who came to see him during his illness. From its content, the poem is likely to have been written during a period of convalescence. After retiring from Kyoto University in 1975, Yukawa Hideki was diagnosed with prostate cancer and underwent surgery, thereafter spending much of his time recuperating at home.
