Augun mín og augun þín
ó þá fögru steina
mitt var þitt og þitt var mitt
þú veist hvað ég meina
Langt er síðan sá ég hann
sannlega fríður var hann
allt sem prýða má einn mann
mest af lýðum bar hann
þig ég trega manna mest
mædda af tára flóði
ó að við hefðum aldrei sést
elsku vinurinn góði

allow me to fix the translation a tiny bit... :)
My eyes and your eyes
oh those beautiful (pupils/lenses) which in Iceland is called 'eye stone'
Mine was yours and yours was mine
you know what I mean
Long is since I saw him
truly fair(beautiful) he was
All that may adorn a man(he was really great)
He was better then others (no-one carried him ;) )
You I'll miss the most of all (because she won't meet him again)
tired because I've cried so much
Oh what if we had never met
dear beloved friend
