Husicka Diwoka Letêla Z Wysoka

A wild goose from the heavens dismounting,
Drank the fresh water of our fountain.

Drank the fresh stream and left the troubled:
My thoughts of love for thee were doubled.

My thoughts for thee — for thee, my lover!
All else I pass regardless over.

Fain would I wed — but they impede me;
And say — that love to want will lead me.

To want and woe — no bread — no baking —
No gathering hay — no harvest-making.

That want shall waste — and labor fag me —
And by my hair my husband drag me,
