Gullaldr [English translation]

Then comes the mightiest

son of Earth,

Odin's son goes

to fight the serpent:

in wrath he strikes;

The Protector of the Middle World,

All humans must now

leave their homesteads:

He walks the nine steps,

the son of Earth

death-wed he is

yet no scolds be spoken.

The Sun is blackened,

Earth sinks into the ocean,

from the heaven disappears

the bright stars;

steam rises up

from huge fires,

a high flame plays

against heaven itself.

Garm growls now much

before Gnipahelli,

fetters will snap

the wolf run free;

much history know I

forward see I longer

of ragna rök

for the gods.

She sees coming up

second time

Earth from ocean

greencoated;

rushing waterfalls,

fying eagle over,

the one who in the mountains

hunts fish.

Æsir gathers

at Idavoll

and of the Middle World Serpent

they discuss

and remember there

great events

and of Fimbultýs(Mighty Thuler,Odin)

ancient runes.

There they find

wonderful

golden chequers

found in grass,

those used in

yore times.

Without labor

fields grow,

all misfortune will recover,

Baldr will come;

Höðr and Baldr lives together

in Hrofts home

amongst gods.

You know now - or what?

Then shall Hænir

"the twigs of prophecy" choose

and the sons

the two brothers,

builds the Wide World of the Winds.

You know now - or what?

She sees a hall standing

fair as Sun,

golden roofs

at Gimléi;

there shall deceit-free

rulers build

and for eternity

happiness enjoy.
