Translation of the song Jotunheimsfærden artist Svartsot
Jotunheimsfærden
The Quest of Jotunheim
Nu, i skærsommerens varme,
Now, in the heat of midsummer,
Markerne er grønne,
The fields are green,
Frejas frodige barm,
Freya's lush bosom,
Vi skal brygge
We are going to brew
Øl, vi må ha' den kedel,
Beer, we must have that kettle,
Øl, jætternes mægtige ølkar,
Beer, the mighty beer vessel of the giants,
Øl, vi må drage til Hymer,
Beer, we have to go to Hymer,
Øl, der er langt at fare.
Beer, there is far to go.
Rejs, rejs, rejs til Jotunheim,
Travel, travel, travel to Jotunheim,
Hymers kedel for at finde,
Hymer's kettle to find,
Drag til jætteland, held nede
Go to giant land, luck down
ved himlens rand,
at the edge of the sky,
For der, for der bor Hymer,
For there, for there Hymer lives,
Rejs, rejs, rejs til Jotunheim,
Travel, travel, travel to Jotunheim,
Hymers kedel for at vinde,
Hymer's kettle to win,
Rejs, rejs alle modige mænd,
Travel, travel, all brave men,
For tørsten og for æren.
For the thirst and for the honor.
Nej, er jeg vil forglemme,
No, I'm not going to forget,
De, der falder der,
Those who fall there,
Når vi kommer hjem,
When we get home,
Skal vi brygge
We shall brew
Øl, til deres ære og hyldest,
Beer, in their honor and tribute,
Øl, til at slukke vor tørst,
Beer, to quench our thirst,
Øl, vi må ha' den kedel,
Beer, we must have that kettle,
Øl, den er Udgård største.
Beer, it is Udgård's1 largest.
Rejs, rejs, rejs til Jotunheim
Travel, travel, travel to Jotunheim,
Hymers kedel for at finde,
Hymer's kettle to find,
Drag til jætteland, held nede
Go to giant land, luck down
ved himlens rand,
at the edge of the sky,
For der, for der bor Hymer,
For there, for there Hymer lives,
Rejs, rejs, rejs til Jotunheim,
Travel, travel, travel to Jotunheim,
Hymers kedel for at vinde,
Hymer's kettle to win,
Rejs, rejs alle modige mænd,
Travel, travel, all brave men,
For tørsten og for æren.
For the thirst and for the honor.
Rejs til Jotunheim,
Travel to Jotunheim,
Rejs.
Travel.
