lundrǫkkum Guðmundi
hjǫrva éls á halsi
herðendr of skapferði;
nú hafa randviðir reyndan,
ríkmenni veldr brennu,
œsirunn of annat
eggþeys an kjarkleysi.

(grænisk friðr) at ræna,
lítt mun bǫl at bœttra,
búandmenn of dal þenna;
en ef aptr koma sunnan
unndýrs of Kjǫl runnar,
þá's snarræða síðan
seggjum þǫrf at eggja.

hróðrfingin gœðingi;
nýta sér til slátra
seggir mart at leggja;
heimkynni munu hreinni
hafa opt verit, þoptu
Freyr strýkr fasta ôrum
flóð bundins, Guðmundar.

hvern mann vesa í banni
Gylfa láðs, þanns greiðir,
geðrakkr, fyr mér nakkvat;
trautt kann hóf, sás háttar,
hoddlestir, vel flestu,
meðr eru af því aðrir
ósælir, stórmæla.

berr stríð af því víða
lýða kind á láði
lǫngum kirkju-gǫngur;
geystr mun gegn at flestu
Guðmundr fara of stundir;
trautt mák enn fyr annan
enda sjá hvar lendir.

glíkr Tómási at ríki,
nær liggr okkr við eyra,
erfingi hǫfðingja;
ræðr guðs laga greiðir
geðbjartr snǫru hjarta;
hræðisk himna prýði
hann, en vætki annat.

hvers skáldit biðr;
komi mjúk til mín
miskunnin þín;
því heitk á þik,
þú hefr skaptan mik;
ek em þrællinn þinn,
þú 'st dróttinn minn.

at grœðir mik;
minzk mildingr mín,
mest þurfum þín;
ryð þú rǫðla gramr,
ríklyndr ok framr,
hǫlds hverri sorg
ór hjarta borg.
This text is from an old edition
mest þurfum þín
helzt hverja stund
á hǫlða grund;
sett, meyjar mǫgr,
máls-efni fǫgr,
ǫll es hjôlp af þér,
í hjarta mér.
