He has reared his hut by the stream in the valley ,
— That large man , so much at his ease .
Alone he sleeps , and wakes , and talks .
He swears he will never forgets [his true joy] .

He has reared his hut in the bend of the mound ,
— That large man , with such an air of indifference .
Alone he sleeps , and wakes , and sings .
He swears he will never pass from the spot .

He has reared his hut on the level height ,
— That large man , so self-collected .
Alone , he sleeps and wakes , and sleeps again .
He swears he will never tell [of his delight] .
