That I cannot give you | A |

I watch you when you are alone | B |
When you ride into the field behind the dairy | C |
Your hands buried in the mare's | D |
Dark mane | E |

Then I know what lies behind your silence | F |
Scorn hatred of me of marriage Still | G |
You want me to touch you you cry out | H |
As brides cry but when I look at you I see | C |
There are no children in your body | C |
Then what is there | I |

Nothing I think Only haste | J |
To die before I die | K |

In a dream I watched you ride the horse | L |
Over the dry fields and then | M |
Dismount you two walked together | N |
In the dark you had no shadows | O |
But I felt them coming toward me | C |
Since at night they go anywhere | I |
They are their own masters | P |

Look at me You think I don't understand | Q |
What is the animal | R |
If not passage out of this life | S |
