Wulf is on a far island, I am on another - we are apart, we are apart.
They will wish to capture him If he brings his troop - we are apart, we are still apart.
Was it rainy and I sad When the bold warrior laid his arms about me. I took delight and also pain. Oh Wulf, don't let me weep in vain, Eadwacer, do you hear me - we are apart, we are apart.
A wolf shall take our wretched whelp, Drag him to the woods - we are apart, we are still apart.
Men may put asunder that Which was never joined, our song together.
