“
Hjuki and Bil
Hjuki and Bil chased the moon,
With waters from Byrgir’s well,
Upon their shoulders they did share,
Simul the pole and Saegr.
‘Mani,’ they cried and chased the sky,
‘From Byrgir whence we came,
To water the earth and water your drink,
And water the seas with rain’.
Hati looked back and Skol ahead,
But Mani gave no reply,
For Hjuki he took, and bent his crook,
And Bil was taken thereafter.
Hjuki and Bil still chase the moon,
From Byrgir whence they came,
To water the earth and water the drink,
And water the seas with rain.
