Lyrics:  
 
Troll kalla mik  
tungl sjötrungnis,  
auðsug jötuns,  
élsólar böl,  
vilsinn völu,  
vörð náfjarðar,  
hvélsvelg himins.  
 
hvat er troll nema þat?  
 
Ho Ho Hoo…  
x2  
 
Skald kalla mik,  
skapsmið Viðurs,  
Gauts gjafrötuð,  
grepp óhneppan,  
Yggs ölbera,  
x2  
óðs skap-Móða,  
hagsmið bragar.  
 
Hvats skald nema þat? x2  
 
hvat er troll nema þat?  
 
Troll kalla mik  
tungl sjötrungnis,  
auðsug jötuns,  
élsólar böl,  
vilsinn völu,  
vörð náfjarðar,  
hvélsvelg himins.  
 
hvat er troll nema þat?  
 
Þeir blendu hunangi við blóðit  
ok varð þar af mjöðr sá er hverr  
er af drekkr verðr skáld eða frǿðamaðr.

Translation:  
 
They call me troll:  
“dwelling-Hrungnir’s moon”,  
“the giant’s wealth-sucker”,  
“bale of the storm-sun”,  
“the seeress’ delightful company”,  
“guard of the corpse-fjord”,  
“swallower of the heavenly wheel”.  
 
What’s a troll, but this?  
 
Ho Ho Hoo…  
x2  
 
They call me “Skáld”:  
“smith of Viðurr’s ship”,  
“finder of Gautr’s gift”,  
“unscanty man”,  
“bearer of Yggr’s beer”,  
x2  
“Móði’s creator in poetry”,  
“skilled smith of verses”.  
 
What’s a skald, but this? x2  
 
What’s a troll, but this?  
 
They call me troll:  
“dwelling-Hrungnir’s moon”,  
“the giant’s wealth-sucker”,  
“bale of the storm-sun”,  
“the seeress’ delightful company”,  
“guard of the corpse-fjord”,  
“swallower of the heavenly wheel”.  
 
What’s a troll, but this?  
 
They blended honey and blood together  
And created that kind of mead which  
Makes everyone who drinks it a poet and a wise man.  
x3
