Omaneftir og niđaneftir
omaneftir Vallaratúni
Har fór hestur měn tann brúni
omaneftir vallartůni
Tróndur droymdi dreymarnar
segđi teir ei for mřrgum
Tókti mćr sum Noregs kongur
stýrdi grimum vřrgum
Tróndur droymdi dreymarnar
segđi teir ikki smćrri
Tókti mćr sum siglitrř
Tey gingu fjřllum hćrri
Svarađi Sjúrđur Tollaksson:
"Vćr gevum ei slíkt í geyma,
verturnáttin er so long,
at mangt kann bera í dreyma."
Brandi brá of mćlti svá:
"Hilmar undan leypa.
Eg skal standa eftir ein
lív mítt dýrt at keypa."
Omaneftir og niđaneftir
omaneftir Vallaratúni
Har fór hestur měn tann brúni
omaneftir vallartůni

Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
Tróndur dreamt the dreams
Said them not to many:
"Methought that the king of Norway
steered grim wargs."
Tróndur dreamt the dreams
Said them not to many:
"Methought that masts
stood higher than mountains."
Answered Sjůrđur Tollaksson:
"We heed not such things,
The winternight is so long,
that many things may come to dreams."
Swung his sword and spoke thus:
"Chieftains run away.
I shall remain alone
my life life dearly bought."
