I know an ash tree sprinkled,
it's called Yggr's horse,
a high tree, holy,
it stands forever over the green
by the well of Fate, by the well of Fate
The ash tree of Yggr's horse,
it's the tallest of trees,
it endures more
trouble than humans know.
By the well of Fate,
a stag often bites,
and on the side it decays.
By the well of Fate,
Níðhöggr1 diminishes (from) below.
With the white mud,
thence come the dew-falls
that fall into the valley,
it stands forever over the green.
By the well of Fate, by the well of Fate.
By the well of Fate, by the well of Fate.
More worms/serpents lie,
under the ash tree of Yggr's horse,
than any stupid
ape would think.
By the well of Fate

I assume that Góinn
and Móinn, Ófnir
and Sváfnir forever should
blunten twigs of the tree.
