Eirik Jarl [English translation]

Come sit around and listen to me, I will tell

Of happenings that happened in our saga time

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of Nidaros, and Eric, he was Earl (1)

Also from hjaltland and from orkney

To the gathering they were bidden, both man and maiden

In games on the rampant they show their toughness will

And afterwards will the earl hold feast and play

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of Nidaros, and Eric, he was Earl

The first game on the rampant, bow-shot it became

And many aimed teh longbow when the day went on

But noone struck the spear, who placed was upon hill

Except einar of lade, who they called tambarskjelv

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of nidaros, and eric, he was earl

The next game they row out after the nidar fjord they will

And the oar wood cracked when the giants pulled hard

But torgaut out from orkney was a a guy who could row

And Njal and Rafn from Iceland they came in number two

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of Nidaros, and Eric, he was Earl

Next game on the rampart that was horse-race and run

With many horse name-given amongst riding men

But hrimfaxi of eirik jarl, he won as expected was

This was a steed that had no equal

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of Nidaros, and Eric, he was Earl

When the games was at the end on the fifth day it was

Then earl blew the horn, and the competition was over

Now bid we all the follks to the feast hall in

Of these we shall queathe, on the next gathered "Thing"

Famous men from iceland and norway gathered were

In the city of Nidaros, and Eric, he was Earl
