     May the young man always be sad-minded, stern thought of heart, also shall have blithe bearing, also with breast-sorrow, the band of great-worries would be with him all along his world’s mirth, be he fully outlawed in a far folks-land so that my lover sits under a stone cliff, frost-covered by storm, weary-minded lord, overflown by water in the dreary-hall.

語源 2

From Proto-West Germanic *faih, from Proto-Germanic *faihaz, from Proto-Indo-European *póyḱos; cognate with Old High German fēh, Gothic 𐍆𐌹𐌻𐌿𐍆𐌰𐌹𐌷𐍃 (filufaihs). The Proto-Indo-European root is also the source of Ancient Greek ποικίλος (poikílos, “multicoloured”).

The inflected stem fāg- may be because this word ultimately reflects a Proto-Germanic variant *faigaz; alternatively, it may be due to analogy with other adjectives with an alternation between [x] and [ɣ], such as smēag, smēah (“creeping, subtle”).
