Alfadanz [English translation]

In their dwellings at peace

They played at tables, 1

of gold no lack

did the gods then know,

till thither came

up giant-maids three,

huge of might,

out of Jotunheim.

Then sought the gods

their assembly-seats,

The holy ones,

and council held,

To find who should raise

the race of dwarfs

Out of Brimir's blood,

and the legs of Blain.

There was Motsognir

the mightiest made

Of all the dwarfs,

and Durin next;

Many a likeness

of men they made,

The dwarfs in the earth,

as Durin said.

Nyi and Nithi,

Northri and Suthri,

Austri and Vestri,

Althjof, Dvalin,

Nar and Nain,

Niping, Dain,

An and Onar,

Ai, Mjothvitnir.

Vindalf, Thrain,

Thekk and Thorin,

Thror, Vit and Lit,

Nyr and Nyrath,

Regin and Rathsvith

Now have I told

the list aright.

The race of the dwarfs

in Dvalin's throng

Down to Lofar

the list must I tell;

The rocks they left,

and through wet lands

They sought a home

in the fields of sand.

The race of the dwarfs

in Dvalin's throng

Down to Lofar

the list must I tell;

The rocks they left,

and through wet lands

They sought a home

in the fields of sand.
