Þórvaldr Hjaltason

Þórvaldr Hjaltason

Þórvaldr Hjaltason fue un escaldo de Islandia al servicio del rey Erico el Victorioso de Suecia. Participó en la batalla de Fýrisvellir contra Styrbjörn el Fuerte y sus jomsvikings. Tras la victoria, el rey Erico mandó construir túmulos en Gamla Uppsala y prometió una gran premio a quien pudiera componer un poema sobre tal victoria. Entre sus filas se encontraba Þórvaldr Hjaltason, quien inmediatamente compuso un poema, por el cual recibió como recompensa un brazalete de oro. A partir del triunfo en la batalla, el rey Erico fue conocido como "el Victorioso":[1]

Los dos lausavísur de Þórvaldr:

Farið til Fýrisvallar,
folka tungls, hverr's hungrar,
vörðr, at virkis garði
vestr kveldriðu hesta ;
þar hefr hreggdrauga höggvit
(hóllaust es þat) sólar
elfar skíðs fyr ulfa
Eiríkr í dyn geira.[2]
Ilt varð ölna fjalla
örkveðjöndum beðjar
til Svíþjóðar síðan
sveim víkinga heiman ;
þat eitt lifir þeira,
þeir höfðu lið fleira,
(gótt vas) hers (at henda)
hundmargs, es rann undan.[3]
