- En dagskjarr
- Dúrnis niðja
- salvörðuðr
- Sveigði vétti,
- þá er í stein
- enn stórgeði
- Dusla konr
- ept dvergi hljóp,
- ok salr bjartr
- þeira Sökmímis
- jötunbyggðr
- við jöfri gein.[4][5]

- By Diurnir's elfin race,
- Who haunt the cliffs and shun day's face,
- The valiant Swegde was deceived,
- The elf's false words the king believed.
- The dauntless hero rushing on,
- Passed through the yawning mouth of stone:
- It yawned – it shut – the hero fell,
- In Saekmime's hall, where giants dwell.[6][7]
