Bolverk

Kvasir was killed

And his blood turned into

A mead giving wisdom to thee

Sutton the giant

He locked it away

In Hnitbjork, he won't set it free

Odin, for wisdom's sake

Empty Odrornir to spit it all out

Over Midgard as to make

The song come alive, sung out loud

Bolverk Bolverk

Odin's trickery

To lie with a giantess

Three days in a row

Bolverk Bolverk

Giant snake and eagle

To soar in the sky

As wisdom you will glow

In the middle of the mountain

The mead guarded by

Gunlod a giantess fair

Odin she saw

Disguised in a lie

His manhood eager to dare

Three days he did last

And the mead he did drink

Into an eagle he turned to fly

The mead he did spit

As to make Midgard think

And the giantess he left to cry
