Marm Lv 3VIII (Hálf 8)/4 — heyra ‘to hear’

Sögu kann ek segja         sonum Háleygja
vilgi góða,         ef þér vilið heyra.
Hér ferr sunnan         Svarðar dóttir,
um drifin dreyra,         frá Danmörku.

Ek kann segja sonum Háleygja vilgi góða sögu, ef þér vilið heyra. Hér ferr dóttir Svarðar, um drifin dreyra, sunnan frá Danmörku.

I can tell the sons of the Háleygir a story [which is] by no means good, if you want to hear it. Here Svǫrðr’s daughter, drenched with blood, moves from the south from Denmark.
