Blood dried black

In the river of himself

Bone gone black

His throat deeply slit

Life had to be

Paid for with life

Grauballe man

With you lay

Black oxen and pigs

They are your equal

Life had to be

Paid for with life

Swamped purgatory

Hold the fearful soul

An ancient example

Of dishonor

Life had to be

Paid for with life

Time burnt corpse

Eternally haunts

Weak grauballe

Twisted and torn

Life had to be

Paid for with life
