(fæ ek heitis svá leitat)
leiðar (ljósu kvæði)
Líknarbraut fyr gauta.
Sæll lát oss ok allri
angrskerðandi verða
þjóð, sem þurft vár beiðir
þenna hróðr at góðu. | Ek bar framm Líknarbraut — svá fæ ek leitat heitis ljósu kvæði — fyr {gauta {leiðar {foldar humra}}}. {Sæll angrskerðandi}, lát þenna hróðr verða oss ok allri þjóð at góðu, sem þurft vár beiðir. I have presented ‘Líknarbraut’ — thus I find a name for the bright poem — before {men {of the path {of the realm of lobsters}}} [SEA > SEA PATH > SEAFARERS]. {Blessed grief-diminisher} [= Christ], let this encomium be for the good of us and all people, as our need entreats.
