Ragnar Lothbrok's Death Song

I never thought of snakesEigi hugðak orma
In my lifetimeAt aldrlagi mínu
It happens many timesVerðr mjök mörgu sinni
That the least expectedPats minnst varir sjálfan

I never thought of snakesEigi hugðak orma
In my lifetimeAt aldrlagi mínu
It happens many timesVerðr mjök mörgu sinni
That the least expectedPats minnst varir sjálfan

Now I will taste deathNú munk nár af bragði
And die near the beastsOk nær dyrum deyja

Pigs would squealGnyðja mundu grísir
If they knew the fate of the boarEf galtar hag vissi
I have plenty to regretMér er gnótt at grandi
Burying his secretsGrafa inn rönum sínum
And harshly scoldingOk harðliga hváta
The snakes have sucked me dryHafa mik sogit, ormar
Now I will taste deathNú munk nár af bragði
And die near the beastsOk nær dyrum deyja
