Svart Skauf 31VIII/4 — hauga ‘the hillocks’

‘Hef eg með ströndu         strokið jafnliga
og heima jafnan         um hauga snuðrað.
Bitið hef eg álar,         belt klyppingum,
rifið af þönum         riett húð hverja.

‘Eg hef jafnliga strokið með ströndu og jafnan snuðrað um hauga heima. Eg hef bitið álar, belt klyppingum, rifið hverja húð riett af þönum.

‘I’ve regularly rushed along the beach and always sniffed around the hillocks of the homesteads. I’ve bitten leather thongs, destroyed shorn sheepskins, ripped every hide right off the racks.
