It's like a verse of love, lamenting that it's a short summer night, that is, lovers spend less time together.
It's seems that "akazu" means both of not dawing and not getting tired in Japanese. How technical!
In this work, a paper with a pattern of dayflowers was used.
It is best match for this verse because dayflowers bloom only in early morning in summer.
