There is a pair of twins dancing
Dancing, dancing, do the twins
Their hair is light, and whirls
They whirl, whirl and are fair
Boy and girl, girl and boy
I know their names
Freyr and Freyja, pair of twins!
The sacred meadow is singing
Dancing colors, dancing flowers
Swaying branches, scent from pollen
Holy is the dance
This dance is sacred
So sacred that it cannot stop

Stupefaction of senses, intoxication
Cannot stop
Elderflower and scent of virgins
Cannot stop
What circles the meadow?
What decorates the temple?
What stands on the inside of the hall of Uppsala?
The pair of twins are dancing
They dance, dance
Grass touched by the savage foot
