Paroles et traduction Gealdýr - Váli

Váli

Höðr berr hávan hróðrbaðm þinig,
Hann mun Baldri at bana verðaok Óðins son aldri ræna;
Ok Óðins son aldri ræna;

Heim ríð þú, Óðinn, ok ver hróðigr,
Svá komir manna meir aftr á vit,
Er lauss Loki líðr ór böndum
Ok ragnarök rjúfendr koma.

Rindr berr Vála í vestrsölum,
Sá mun Óðins sonr einnættr vega:
Hönd of þvær né höfuð kembir,
áðr á bál of berr Baldrs andskota;

Heim ríð þú, Óðinn, ok ver hróðigr,
Svá komir manna meir aftr á vit,
Er lauss Loki líðr ór böndum
Ok ragnarök rjúfendr koma.

Váli

Höðr bears high the cruel bane-tree thine,
He will be Baldr's bane and Óðin's son ever bereave;
And Óðin's son ever bereave;

Home ride thou, Óðinn, and be glorious,
So no more men return to their senses,
When loose Loki slips from bonds
And Ragnarök's breakers come.

Rindr bears Váli in the western halls,
He shall Óðin's son one-night old slay:
Hand washes he not nor head combs,
Ere on pyre he bears Baldr's adversary;

Home ride thou, Óðinn, and be glorious,
So no more men return to their senses,
When loose Loki slips from bonds
And Ragnarök's breakers come.
