Kleima Lv 1VIII (GrL 4)/1 — fyrri ‘earlier’

Þat var fyrri,         at faðir okkarr
burtu seiddi         báru hjarðir.
Skuluð aldrigi,         nema sköp ráði,
heilir heðan         heim um komaz.

Þat var fyrri, at faðir okkarr seiddi burtu hjarðir báru. Skuluð aldrigi um komaz heilir heim heðan, nema sköp ráði.

That happened earlier, that our father removed herds of the wave [FISH] by magic. You will never return home from here in one piece, unless fate determines it that way.
