A shepherd song.
In reference to this folk poem, Donald Rayfield in The Literature of Georgia: A History says:
The poetry that teases shepherds reflects the conviction, expressed in the definition of 'man' in a Tsova-Tush-Georgian dictionary, that a man is 'one who does not go among sheep.' Shepherds lack the charisma that Hellenic or Christian legends give them. In Tush poetry the shepherd is made to say:
I'm not fed up with the mountains
Nor do I long for the valley,
Nor to sleep and lie with beautiful women,
Nor to talk with them.
I prefer the red-eyed ewe
And tugging at her forelock.
To hear other versions of this song, visit the pages of Leila Lachishvili and Gulo Natelashvili.
