Inga
Language: Norwegian (Nynorsk)
Den fag ra ste Dros, som i Bygdi bid, ev Inga unge fraa Øvrelid med Augo so blaa som Nathimlen fin, der tusund Stjernor i Djupet skin. Aa skoda djupt i det Augnepar tœk Hjartafreden fraa mang ein Kar og fyller Bringa med Song og Sull og spinner Hu gen i Draum og Gull. Ho vermar upp Hjarto i Bygdi vid, og heitande vert ho "So li i Lid." Gutarne sovnar med Inga sit Navn, og heitt dei ynskjer seg Inga i Favn.
