京に飽きてこの木枯や冬住ひ
京に倦てこの凩や冬住居
Kyoo ni akite kono kogarashi ya fuyuzumai

getting bored of Kyoto
and now this ice-cold wind -
my lodging in winter

Tr. Gabi Greve

Basho seems to be quite fed up with his life in the capital by now. The winter wind makes him remember his own dwelling in Edo.
This is his greeting hokku to his host.
