Svart Skauf 8VIII/2 — halda ‘to go’

‘Þú munt heiman         halda verða
og afla bráða         til bús okkars.
Væri það skára         í venju að leggja,
sem virðum má         vest gegna.’

‘Þú munt verða halda heiman og afla bráða til bús okkars. Væri skára að leggja það í venju, sem má gegna virðum vest.’

‘You’ll have to go away from home and provide meat for our household. It would be better to make a habit of whatever will serve humans the worst.’
