SONG
George Borrow translation
Nastrond’s blazes, How fierce ye roar! The deepmost deeps feel Valhal’s power.
Sulphurous blazes, Which with dismay Strike e’en the Aser, Our voice obey!
Poisonous blazes, Harden a spear For Valhal’s may!
Poisonous blazes. Harden a spear For Valhal’s may!
Poisonous blazes, Harden a spear For Valhal’s may!
In juice of rue And trefoil too, In marrow of bear And blood of trold, Be cool’d the spear, Three times cool’d, When hot from fire Of Nastrond dire, For Valhal’s may.
Whom it woundeth It shall slay.
Whom it woundeth It shall slay.
Whom it woundeth It shall slay.
