ÞjJ Lv 2^VIII (ÞJ 2)/2 — koma ‘bring’

⬅︎ koma (verb; kem, kom/kvam, kominn): come

Hlær, þá er hildar máva*
* hugr minn, koma þínum
— stafns verðk gjarn til Gefnar —
gælendr fyr mér hæli.
Úlfr veit um — Syn sjálfa
sædags lofak fagra —
— mér verðr grund at grandi
grafsilfrs — etit hafði.

* Hugr minn hlær, þá er gælendr máva* hildar koma hæli þínum fyr mér; verðk gjarn til Gefnar stafns. Lofak fagra Syn sædags sjálfa; grund grafsilfrs verðr mér at grandi; úlfr veit um [þat, er] hafði etit.

My mind laughs when appeasers of the seagulls of battle [RAVENS/EAGLES > WARRIORS] bring your woman before me; I desire the Gefn <goddess> of the headdress [WOMAN]. I praise the beautiful Syn <goddess> of the sea-day [GOLD > WOMAN] herself; the ground of engraved silver [WOMAN] causes me suffering; the wolf knows [what] he had eaten.
