Lagarfljótsormurrin
Creature of land and sea
Internal terrestrial
Dwelling in fire and ice
Why do you only appear
When the earth trembles?
Are you afraid?
Or are you to be feared?
Winter worm
Snow slither
You make
Norseman shiver
Some say you don't exist
But you move like the oarfish
Snaking your body among the floating ice
Oh great arctic eel
.
You make Vikings tremble
