Sigurðr Lv 2VIII (Ǫrv 39)/7 — fellu ‘fell’

Oddr, vartu eigi         út með Girkjum,
þá er á Serkjum         sverð vár ruðum.
Gerðum harðan         hljóm ísarna;
fellu fyrðar         í fólkroði.

Oddr, vartu eigi út með Girkjum, þá er ruðum sverð vár á Serkjum. Gerðum harðan hljóm ísarna; fyrðar fellu í fólkroði.

Oddr, you were not abroad among the Greeks, when we reddened our swords on the Saracens. We made the harsh music of iron weapons [BATTLE]; men fell in the army-reddening [BATTLE].
