Along those raised banks of the Ru, | |
I cut down the branches and slender stems. | |
While I could not see my lord, | |
I felt as it were pangs of great hunger. | |
Along those raised banks of the Ru, | |
I cut down the branches and fresh twigs. | |
I have seen my lord; | |
He has not cast me away. | |
The bream is showing its tail all red; | |
The royal House is like a blazing fire. | |
Though it be like a blazing fire, | |
Your parents are very near. |
