Ingjaldr Geirmundarson, Atlǫguflokkr — Guðrún Nordal

Not published: do not cite (Ingj Atlfl^IV)

Þórðr óð í styr stríðum,
strengs kom hagl á drengi,
endr rifu ímunvindar
Yggjar tjǫld, fyr skjǫldu;
gunnmána nam grenna
galdr-Freyr Sigars tjalda,
ormr stóð í val vǫrmum
vígs, skóð drifusk blóði.

Rít varð rauð at mœta
(ruðusk spjót í val) grjóti,
gustr knúði mjǫk mistar,
mein fekk herr af steinum;
stœrðisk hjaldr, en hurðir
Hárs, reiddusk skip, meiddusk,
búkr fell á Val víka,
vápnadóms, at rómu.

Þórðr vann flest, þars fyrðar,
fleinhregg, brutu eggjar;
framr gat sonr at semja
Sigvats dunur vigra;
ógnrǫkkum frák ekki
allsnart í styr hjarta,
þars hraut á sæ sveiti,
sverðálfi mjǫk skjálfa.

Myndi sízt á sundi
svipknýjandi flýja
hildar garðs frá hǫrðu
hretviðri geirfletja,
ef (hjaldrs reitar) hóti
hlunnfáks sumir runnar
(gunnlátrs ruðu gautar
glœðr) fastara stœði.

Hrauð, þars hermenn kníðu,
hlutvandr, dunur randa,
(menn vissu þat) þrenna
Þorðr hlaupmari borða;
lýð frák líf við dauða
liðveljanda selja,
en þess er grið grendusk
galt Leirhafnar-Hjalti.

Íms hafði lið ljóma
leikherðandi verðar
(ruðusk mél) í styr (stála
stinn) tveim hlutum minna;
því frák Þundar skýja
þingeggjanda leggja
gunnar eims frá glaumi
grœðis skíð of síðir.

Information about a text: poem, sequence of stanzas, or prose work

This page is used for different resources. For groups of stanzas such as poems, you will see the verse text and, where published, the translation of each stanza. These are also links to information about the individual stanzas.

For prose works you will see a list of the stanzas and fragments in that prose work, where relevant, providing links to the individual stanzas.

Where you have access to introduction(s) to the poem or prose work in the database, these will appear in the ‘introduction’ section.

The final section, ‘sources’ is a list of the manuscripts that contain the prose work, as well as manuscripts and prose works linked to stanzas and sections of a text.
