Hengist en Horsa het broederpaar
Leidden de Saksische legerschare
Met woede in het hart en saks in de hand
Over Aegirs rijk naar het Brittenland
Angelen en Saksen hieven het zwaard
Kelten en Picten werden niet gespaard
Vriend en vijand toonde moed
En vereerden hun goden met vergoten bloed
Vele schepen met krijgers bemand
Kwamen aan uit ons vaderland
Zoveel strijd nog nooit vertoond
Het land werd van de laffen verschoond
Horsa viel tegen Vortigerns zoon
Maar Hengist overwon en besteeg de troon
De overwinning was behaald
En Nieuwe grond met bloed betaald
