Open passage
With the words of Urth | shall no man war,
Open passage
Though unearned her gifts be given.”
Open passage
64. “Welcome thou art, | for long have I waited;
Open passage
The welcoming kiss shalt thou win!
Open passage
For two who love | is the longed-for meeting
Open passage
The greatest gladness of all.
Open passage
65. “Long have I sat | on Lyfjaberg here,
Open passage
Awaiting thee day by day;
Open passage
And now I have | what I ever hoped,
Open passage
For here thou art come to my hall.
Open passage
66. “Alike we yearned; | I longed for thee,
Open passage
And thou for my love hast longed;
Open passage
But now henceforth | together we know
Open passage
Our lives to the end we shall live.”
