Sól tér sortna
sígr fold ímar
hverfa af himni
heiðar stjǫrnur.
geisar eimi

leikr hár hiti
við himin sjálfan.

translated by G.A.Gjessing, Kristiania, 1899

56.
Sol den sortner,
synker i hav jord,
blegner af himlen
blanke stjerner;
frøser da damp
og flammehav,
høi slaar heden
mod himlen selv.

translated by Henry Adams Bellows, 1936

57.
The sun turns black, |
earth sinks in the sea,
The hot stars down |
from heaven are whirled;
Fierce grows the steam |
and the life-feeding flame,
Till fire leaps high |
about heaven itself.
