Examples

“Á Sprengisandi (“On Sprengisandur”) by Grímur Thomsen Þey þey! þey þey! þaut í holti tófa, þurran vill hún blóði væta góm, eða líka einhver var að hóa undarlega digrum karlaróm; útilegumenn í Ódáðahraun eru kannske að smala fé á laun. Hush, hush, hush, hush, the fox howls in the forest, wanting to quench his thirst with blood. Or - is it someone calling, strangely, with a harsh voice? Outlawed men, in the vast waste land are secretly guarding their stolen sheep.”
