Lyrics:
Fjölð ek fór, fjölð ek freistaða,
fjölð ek reynda regin;
hitt vil ek vita, hvé Vafþrúðnis
salakynni sé.
Fór þá Óðinn at freista orðspeki
þess ins alsvinna jötuns;
at höllu hann kom, ok átti Íms faðir;
inn gekk Yggr þegar.
Heill þú nú, Vafþrúðnir, nú em ek í höll kominn
á þik sjalfan sjá;
hitt vil ek fyrst vita, ef þú fróðr sér
eða alsviðr jötunn.
Hvat er þat manna er í mínum sal
verpumk orði á?
Út þú né komir órum höllum frá,
nema þú inn snotrari sér.
Gagnráðr ek heiti, nú emk af göngu kominn,
þyrstr til þinna sala;
laðar þurfi - hef ek lengi farit -
ok þinna andfanga, jötunn.
Hví þú þá, Gagnráðr, mælisk af golfi fyr?
Far þú í sess í sal!
Þá skal freista, hvárr fleira viti,
gestr eða inn gamli þulr.
Óauðigr maðr, er til auðigs kemr,
mæli þarft eða þegi;
ofrmælgi mikil, hygg ek, at illa geti
hveim er við kaldrifjaðan kemr.
Fjölð ek fór, fjölð ek freistaðak,
fjölð ek of reynda regin;
Hvat mælti Óðinn, áðr á bál stigi,
sjalfr í eyra syni.
Ey manni þat veit, hvat þú í árdaga
sagðir í eyra syni;
feigum munni mælta ek mína forna stafi
ok of ragnarök.
Nú ek við Óðin deildak mína orðspeki;
þú ert æ vísastr vera.
Written and performed by Will Hunter
Vocals (Vafþrúðnir) by Sigurboði Grétarsson

translation: "Much have I fared, much have I found. Much have I got from the gods; And fain would I know how Vafthruthnir now Lives in his lofty hall. The wisdom then of the giant wise Forth did he fare to try; He found the hall | of the father of Im, And in forthwith went Ygg. Vafthruthnir, hail! | to thy hall am I come, For thyself I fain would see; And first would I ask | if wise thou art, Or, giant, all wisdom hast won. Who is the man | that speaks to me, Here in my lofty hall? Forth from our dwelling | thou never shalt fare, Unless wiser than I thou art. Gagnrath they call me, | and thirsty I come From a journey hard to thy hall; Welcome I look for, | for long have I fared, And gentle greeting, giant. Why standest thou there | on the floor whilst thou speakest? A seat shalt thou have in my hall; Then soon shall we know | whose knowledge is more, The guest's or the sage's gray. If a poor man reaches | the home of the rich, Let him wisely speak or be still; For to him who speaks | with the hard of heart Will chattering ever work ill. Much have I fared, | much have I found, Much have I got of the gods: What shall bring the doom | of death to Othin, When the gods to destruction go? No man can tell | what in olden time Thou spak'st in the ears of thy son; With fated mouth | the fall of the gods And mine olden tales have I told; With Othin in knowledge | now have I striven, And ever the wiser thou art. taken from www.voluspa.org/vafthrudnismal1-5.htm ; 5-10 and 51-55
