Látum sönginn glaðan gjalla
Language: Icelandic (Íslenska)
Látum sönginn glaðan gjalla, göfga drottin ár og síð. Lofgjörð hans til himinhalla hefjist upp frá öllum lýð. Svíf þú söngur, hægum hreimi hress og gleð og styrk þú sál, yfir synd og sorg í heimi svíf þú frjáls með hjartans mál. Látum sönginn glaðan gjalla, göfga drottin ár og síð. Lofgjörð hans til himinhalla hefjist upp frá öllum lýð. Látum sönginn glaðan gjalla, göfga drottin ár og síð.
