Þú, haf! sem ber tímans og harmanna farg // you, sea! who carries the weight of the times and the sorrows
þú hugraun mér vekur // you cause me mental distress
í hjarta mér innst, þá þú brýzt um við bjarg // in the innermost part of my heart, you crash on the cliffs
það bergmála tekur // it starts to echo

Þinn niður er hryggur, þinn hljómur er sár // your ripple is sad, your sound is bitter,
pú hrellir svo muna // you intimidate the mind so
sem brimdropinn hver væri beiskasta tár // as if each drop of surf were a bitter tear
hvert báruhljóð stuna // each sound of a wave were a sigh

Og dimmur var ægir og dökk undir él // and dark was the ocean and dark, under the hail
var dynhamra-borgin // was the thunderous cliffside
og þá datt á náttmyrkrið þögult sem hel // and then the darkness of night fell, silent like death
og þungt eins og sorgin // and heavy like grief

Við hafið eg sat fram á sævarbergs stall // by the sea I sat on a sea rock ledge
og sá út í drungann // and saw into the gloom
þar brimaldan stríða við ströndina svall // where the great heavy wave surged by the shore
og stundi svo þungan // and sighed so heavily
