Tróndur í Gøtu

Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Tróndur droymdi dreymarnar
Segði teir ei for mørgum
Tókti mær sum Noregs kongur
Stýrdi grimum vørgum
 
Tróndur droymdi dreymarnar
Segði teir ikki smærri
Tókti mær sum siglitrø
Tey gingu fjøllum hærri
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Svaraði Sjúrður Tollaksson:
"Vær gevum ei slíkt í geyma,
Verturnáttin er so long,
At mangt kann bera í dreyma."
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Brandi brá og mælti svá:
"Hilmar undan leypa.
Eg skal standa eftir ein
Lív mítt dýrt at keypa."
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni
 
Omaneftir og niðaneftir
Omaneftir vallaratúni
Har fór hestur mín tann brúni
Omaneftir vallaratúni

Tróndur í Gøtu

Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Tróndur dreamt the dreams
Said them not to many:
"Methought that the king of Norway
steered grim wargs."
 
Tróndur dreamt the dreams
Said them not to many:
"Methought that masts
stood higher than mountains."
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Answered Sjùrður Tollaksson:
"We heed not such things,
The winternight is so long,
that many things may come to dreams."
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Swung his sword and spoke thus:
"Chieftains run away.
I shall remain alone
my life life dearly bought."
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
 
Up and down
Up the wanderers yard
There went my horse, the brown one
Down the wanderers yard
