Tursamal [English translation]

Since early primeval times we've rested, and bid so our time.

Remember Ymir, the ancient giant, grand and [ill*]!

He [was] slayed and slaughtered, skinned and hanged,

all world was born come dawn.

Brothers, that deed we still remember.

See us titans, see us giants go to battle!

From Jotunheim in Utgard,

From Eastern land, from North,

Towards Midgard they're seen go!

And Midgard they shall strike upon!

Hrym from East, Surtr with fire,

Muspell's sons, beast and troll.

Towards Midgard they're seen go!

And Midgard they shall strike upon!

We steer you where you don't want,

distort sight and sense,

Entice, see; we easily fool you!

You're tiny and weak and frail,

skin so thin, so fine and soft.

See, the flame soon devours your legs!

See fire and smoke lay hand on** the sky!

In river of blood where giants died,

though one that current evaded,

Hvergelmir, with solely child and flower.

Lineage of giants they shape,

Suttungr's sons, giant trolls

And jötnar, all [evil***] in world is born.

There evil and nuisance! There fire and sharpened sword!
