The language of this poem is different both from the local Cirdamur variety and from any other preserved Kyrdan language, retaining many archaisms in terms of both phonology and grammar. The text is carved in a stone tablet and is the only surviving recording of this poem. It was likely meant for singing, but the melody was not recorded. It is sometimes viewed as an ancient love spell, rather than a simple proclamation of love, as such spells | The Old Ķyrdum love song from the river Yōˀnam is an ancient love poem, written approximately two thousand years BA (Before Ascending).
