Examples
“Á Sprengisandi (“On Sprengisandur”) by Grímur Thomsen Ríðum, ríðum, rekum yfir sandinn, rökkrið er að síða á Herðubreið, álfadrottning er að beizla gandinn, ekki er gott að verða á hennar leið; vænsta klárinn vildi eg gefa til að vera kominn ofan í Kiðagil. Ride, ride, ride hard across the sands, darkness settles over Herðubreið. The Queen of the elves bridles her steed - be careful not to cross her path. My best horse I'd sacrifice to be safely back in Kiðagil.”
