Surtr sitr— við heims enda… Surtr sits—at the world’s end… Eldur vaknar— enginn sleppur… Fire awakens—none escape… At the edge where the fire does breathe, Beyond all roots of Yggdrasil’s wreath, He waits in flame, in ash, in night— The end made flesh, the final light. No frost can bind, no sea can quell, The lord of burning Muspel’s hell, His blade outshines the dying sun— When he shall rise… all is undone. No plea— No oath— No turning back— The world must burn… In fire and black— SURTR — LOGI RÍSR flame rises SURTR — HEIMR LÝSR the world burns / is lit in flame SVERÐ HANS SKER— GEGN HIMINN BLÁN— His sword cuts—through the blue sky— ALLT SKAL BRENN— ALLT SKAL FÁN— All shall burn—all shall fall— From Muspelheim the sons of flame, March beneath his burning name, Across the bridge that shatters wide— As Bifröst breaks in molten tide. The gods will stand, but not for long, Against the fire ancient and strong, Even Odin’s breath and Thor’s might— Shall fade within that searing light. The last great war— The last great cry— The sky will split— The worlds will die— SURTR — ELDUR RENN fire runs / spreads SURTR — ENDIR KENN the end is known / revealed FRÁ MUSPELHEIM— TIL MIÐGARÐS FALL— From Muspelheim—to Midgard’s fall— ELDR SKAL ETA— HEIMINN ALLAN— Fire shall consume—the whole world— Sól sortnar— jörð sígr í mar— The sun turns black—the earth sinks into sea— Stjörnur hverfa— af himni niður— Stars vanish—from the sky— Ash to sky, and flame to bone— The world returns to what was known— Fire— Breath— Ash— Death— Surtr… kemr… Surtr… comes… SURTR — ALDRI ÞAGG— SURTR — LOKA DAG— end of days ÞEGAR HEIMR— Í ELDI FER— When the world—goes into fire— NÝR MUN RÍSA— ÚR ÖSKU ÞÉR— A new one shall rise—from the ashes— Eldur lifir… eldur tekr… Fire lives… fire takes…
