Árás(original) |
| Kvöld, úr norðri kólna fer |
| Kemur yfir heiðar: |
| Vængjasláttur, vætta her |
| Varúlfar til reiðar |
| Ég reið yfir landið mitt, reri' út á fjörð |
| Rólegur sjórinn, ég lofaði Njörð |
| Í ljósanna skiptum ég leit upp í Skörð |
| Ljót var sú sýn er mér mætti |
| Kom yfir brúnina kolsvartur her |
| Ég kúventi bátnum og hraðaði mér |
| Vængirnir steinrunnir, vígtannager |
| Og væl sem nú kyrrðina tætti |
| Skugga hann varpaði, skelfileg sjón |
| Skálmöld var risin og mikið varð tjón |
| Drukknaði þannig mín dýrasta bón |
| Drepið var allt sem ég unni |
| Verja þau átti en var til þess seinn |
| Viti menn, lifandi eftir ei neinn |
| Ataður svörður sem áður var hreinn |
| Allt mitt var hrunið að grunni |
| Ég sá: |
| Barnið mitt tætt, blóðugt og hrætt |
| Ég sá: |
| Barið á húsgripum mínum og ætt |
| Ég sá: |
| Saklaust blóð, fljóta um fljóð |
| Ég sá: |
| Fjölskyldu slátrað sem var mér svo góð |
| Ég sá: |
| Deyja mær, dæturnar tvær |
| Ég sá: |
| Dreyrrauðar klærnar sem læstust í þær |
| Ég sá: |
| Visna jurt, var einhvers spurt? |
| Ég sá: |
| Vágestinn glotta og halda á burt |
| Gekk um garð |
| Gríðarskarð |
| Höggvið hart |
| Hel mig snart |
| Vængjuð vá |
| Vargur sá |
| Nafn hans nefnt |
| Nú skal hefnt |
| Heit er gefið, heit sem verður efnt |
| (translation) |
| Evening, from the north cools leaves |
| Across the moors: |
| Wing, wet army |
| Werewolves to ride |
| I rode across my country, rowing out into the fjord |
| The calm sea, I promised Njörð |
| In the light of the lights I looked up at Skörð |
| The vision I could see was ugly |
| Came across the edge a coal-black army |
| I hoisted the boat and hurried |
| The wings have been shown solely to give a sense of proportion |
| And a howl that now tore the silence |
| The shadow he cast, a frightening sight |
| Poetry was erected and much damage was done |
| Thus drowned my most precious plea |
| Killing was all I loved |
| They had to defend but it was too late |
| Wise men, living after no one |
| Eaten swords that were previously clean |
| My whole thing had collapsed to the ground |
| I saw: |
| My baby is torn, bloody and scared |
| I saw: |
| Knock on my belongings and family |
| I saw: |
| Innocent blood, floating on the river |
| I saw: |
| A family slaughtered that was so good to me |
| I saw: |
| Maiden dies, the two daughters |
| I saw: |
| The crimson claws locked in them |
| I saw: |
| Withered herb, was anyone asked? |
| I saw: |
| The weakest grin and hold off |
| Went around the yard |
| Huge gap |
| Hit hard |
| Heal me soon |
| Winged wow |
| The wolf saw |
| His name mentioned |
| Now let's take revenge |
| A promise is made, a promise that will be fulfilled |
