Summary
A man's love song to the girl of the beguiling eyes. If he could have her as a wife he would not ask for a dowry of cattle or land with her. He says that if her heart was in accordance with her words he would never forsake her. He describes a young girl's love. It is like a fast-flowing stream running down a steep slope and when it stops it grows cold. They put the man in a hidden glen where he cannot see his beloved.
