benja linn* til sára spenja;
allvaldr rauð, þars ýtar fellu,
unda naðr í hræva sundi.
Bitran spurðak bǫðvar Njǫrðum
brynju snák í hausum dynja;
reiða tóku ríkar þjóðir
randar orm at svarðar strǫndu. | Bragningr réð spenja {linn* benja} til sára í {regni branda}; allvaldr rauð {naðr unda} í {sundi hræva}, þars ýtar fellu. Spurðak {bitran snák brynju} dynja í hausum {Njǫrðum bǫðvar}; ríkar þjóðir tóku reiða {orm randar} at {strǫndu svarðar}. The lord enticed {the serpent of wounds} [SWORD] to injuries in {the rain of blades} [BATTLE]; the mighty ruler reddened {the adder of wounds} [SWORD] in {the sea of carrion} [BLOOD] where men fell. I heard that {the bitter snake of the byrnie} [SWORD] crashed against the skulls {of the Nirðir <gods> of battle} [WARRIORS]; powerful people began to swing {the reptile of the shield-rim} [SWORD] towards {the beach of the scalp} [HEAD].
