Brede seil over Nordsjø går [English translation]

Broad sails moves across the North Sea

High up on the stronghold in the morning stands

Erling Skjalgsson from Sole

Gazing out across the sea towards Denmark

"Isn´t Olav Trygvason coming?"

Fiftysix dragons(ships) layed there

The sails were lowered, towards Denmark they saw

Sunburned men, then it was shouted :

"Where is Ormen Lange?”(Olav Trygvasons longship)

“Isn´t Olav Trygvason coming?”

When the sun rose the next morning

There was no mast in sight on the sea

Loud shouts sounded like a storm:

"Where is Ormen Lange?”

“Isn´t Olav Trygvason coming?”x2

Silently, silently at the same moment

All stood,men rose from the bottom of the sea

Sloshed like the sighs of the fleet:

"Ormen Lange is captured,

Olav Trygvason has fallen"
