Arise

From Ymir's flesh the earth was made

And from his blood the seas

Crags from his bones, trees from his hair

His skull made the sky so free

From his eyebrows the blessed gods

Made Midgard for the sons of men

And from his brains

Storm-threatening clouds

Midgard arise

From the ashes of a thousand years of war

The spark of life

Touch the elm and the ash tree

Deep within their core

Mankind arise

Take possesion of the land, sea and shore

The Spark of Life

The spark of life darkness is no more

From Muspelsheim fire was taken

To shine over Midgard

Put in a chariot to be drawn

Across the sky

Sol the driver hunted day for day

By Skoll the wolf

So finally on Ragnarцk

The sun will die
