| "Who is this mighty man outside | |
| The one who killed the trolls? | |
| Will he be staying here tonight | |
| Or turning where the thunder rolls?" | |
| [Thor:] | |
| "The thunder rolls whereever I travel on my way | |
| Tonight I will be here don't cry | |
| Save you are to stay" | |
| [Father:] | |
| "You are a lord that I can see | |
| A god you are as well | |
| What is your mighty name to be? | |
| This you're bound to tell" | |
| [Refrain:] | |
| [Thor:] | |
| "I'm Thor, the mighty god | |
| The lord of rain and storm | |
| Now build a fire | |
| For feast it shall be warm" | |
| [Father:] | |
| "There is no feast we have no meat | |
| My lord, I am afraid to say | |
| Hunger will be in our seat | |
| There is no feast today" | |
| [Thor:] | |
| "My goat will give a live for all | |
| So we have all we need | |
| I'll kill it now, a roast, I call | |
| My friend, for us you'll bleed | |
| Don't break a bone of him tonight | |
| Not the smallest one you'll harm | |
| If you do, you little wight | |
| The mighty Thor will not be calm" | |
| [Child:] | |
| "Delicious is the meal for us | |
| The marrow I would greed | |
| I'll break a little bone and thus | |
| Fullfill my baneful need" | |
| The mighty Thor revived his friend | |
| In the morning with his hammer | |
| To bring him to the Aesirs land | |
| In the used and wonted manner | |
| [Thor:] | |
| "Who broke his leg the night before? | |
| I told you not to do | |
| I told you what will be afore | |
| My rage now comes to you" | |
| The goat's alive again but lame | |
| One of you has harmed a bone | |
| One of you is bearing blame | |
| He will be punished, he alone" | |
| [Child:] | |
| "I was the one I broke the leg | |
| My lust was just too big | |
| I fear there is no use to beg | |
| To your decision I will stick" | |
| [Thor:] | |
| "Thjalfi you will follow brave | |
| On each and every way | |
| No matter how your soul will crave | |
| For each and every day" |
