lyrics

Often the lone-dweller waits for favor,
mercy of the Measurer
Though he unhappy across the seaways long time must
Stir with his hands
The rime-cold sea,
Tread exile-tracks
Fate is established!

So the earth-stepper spoke, mindful of hardships,
of fierce slaughter, fall of kin:
Oft must I
Alone the hour before dawn
lament my care
Among the living none now
Remains to whom I dare

My inmost thought clearly reveal.
I know it for truth: it is in a warrior
noble strength to bind fast his spirit,
guard his wealth-chamber
think what he will
Weary mind never
Never withstands fate

Therefore, glory-seekers oft bind fast
in breast-chamber a dreary mind.
So must I my heart –
often wretched with cares, deprived of homeland.

My lord in darkness, and I, wretched,
thence, mad and desolate as winter,
over the wave’s binding sought, hall-dreary,
a giver of treasure, where far or near
