Summary
A waulking song/woman's love song. A girl addresses the man she loves, wishing she was his chosen one. She praises his black hair and his twinkling eyes, which often made her laugh. However, he had promised to return for her last year and failed to appear. He also promised to come this year but her hair has turned grey waiting for him.
