Da sagde Gullrønd, Gjukes Datter
Language: Danish (Dansk)  after the Old Norse (Fornnorræna) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
Da sagde Gullrønd, Gjukes Datter:
"Ej du mægter, Foster moder!
skøndt vis du er,
den unge Viv at trøste!"
Ej lod hun til hylle Fyrstens Lig.
Lagnet strøg hun af Sigurds Legem,
vendte hans Kind mod Gudruns Knæ:
"See paa din Elskte;
læg din Mund til hans Skjæg,
som om du favnede
Fyrsten i Live."

Alors Gullrønd, la fille de Gjuke dit
Language: French (Français)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
Alors Gullrønd, la fille de Gjuke dit :
» Tu es impuissante ma mère !
Pourtant tu montrais de l'empressement
À consoler cette jeune épouse. «
Elle n'a pas fait envelopper le cadavre du prince.
Elle tira le drap couvrant le corps de Sigurd
Tourna sa joue vers le genou de Gudrun :
» Regarde ton bien-aimé ;
Pose ta bouche sur sa barbe,
Comme pour embrasser
Le prince encore en vie. «
