šealgá oaivvi alde
buorre eamit

oppa dan áiggi

the measure of holiness
I brag
a halo
gleams above my head
good wife
honorable woman
always faithful
to you, my man
I never even kissed
another man
the whole time
this is how a proper woman lives
trustworthy and compliant
not to be lead astray
I know my responsibility
I am exemplary
others whore around
with secret lovers
black lies
tar the face
tar the tongue
my conscience gleams white
I bask in its glow
sometimes
so hot
I burn my nose
