| | Translated by J. G. Lockhart
MY ornaments are arms, | |
| My pastime is in war, | |
| My bed is cold upon the wold, | |
| My lamp yon star. | |
| |
| My journeyings are long, | 5 |
| My slumbers short and broken; | |
| From hill to hill I wander still, | |
| Kissing thy token. | |
| |
| I ride from land to land, | |
| I sail from sea to sea; | 10 |
| Some day more kind I fate may find, | |
| Some night kiss thee. | | | | |
