Summary

A love song in which the bard is praising his love. Her eyes are as green as the roses, her mouth is beautiful and her eyebrows are as thin as a swan's feather. Even if he got lost in the glen on his way to meet her it would be his fault. He praises her for her beauty in a gown and he laments that they are separated by a stretch of water.
