Into the granite : stave by stave carved ploughwise : now read my tale the raging ocean I have sailed many a man I have maimed
Shields I have crushed with my sword women have I pleased endless nights on foreign coast my brother did fall he now dines in hall up high
Erected the stone against a twilight sky read Sea Wolf's tale
From the coasts of the west to sarkland to the marshlands and the forests of the east high adventures : great riches and wine blood shed : great battles and feasts
My stone firm in mother eart through rain and time read Sea Wolf's tale
