| has gloss | eng: Svipdagsmál or The Lay of Svipdagr is an Old Norse poem, a part of the Poetic Edda, comprising two poems, The Spell of Gróa and The Lay of Fjölsviðr. The two works are grouped since they have a common narrator, Svipdagr. Moreover they would appear to have a common origin since they are closely similar in use of language, structure, style and metre (ljóðaháttr). These two poems are found in several 17th century paper manuscripts. In at least three of these manuscripts, the poems are in reverse order and separated by a third Eddic poem titled Hyndluljóð. For a long time, the connection between the two poems was not realized, until in 1854 Svend Grundtvig pointed out a connection between the story told in Grógaldr and the first part of the medieval Scandinavian ballad of Ungen Sveidal /Herr Svedendal/Hertig Silfverdal. Then in 1856, Sophus Bugge noticed that the last part of the ballad corresponded to Fjölsvinnsmál. Bugge wrote about this connection in Forhandlinger i Videnskabs-Selskabet i Christiania 1860, calling the two poems together Svipdagsmál. Subsequent scholars have accepted this title. |

| has gloss | eus: Svipdagsmal (Svipdagen kantua), Edda poetikoaren zati den antzinako eskandinabieraz idatzitako olerki bat da. Bi olerkik osatzen dute: Grogaldr edo Groaren sorginkeriak eta Fjölsvinnsmal edo Fjölsvinnrren esaerak. Bi lanak, elkartuak daude, narratzaile bera baitute, Svipdag. Gainera, dirudienez, amankomuneko jatorri bat dute, oso antzekoak baitira lengoaiaren erabilera, egitura, estilo eta ljóðaháttr metrikari dagokionez. |

| has gloss | ita: Nella letteratura norrena, Svipdagsmál (in norreno Il discorso di Svipdagr), è un poema epico simbolico facente parte dell'Edda poetica, ma presente solo in manoscritti recenti, rispetto al Codex Regius, non anteriori al XVII secolo. Questi manoscritti risultano complessi da classificare perché riportano nomi e appellativi assenti nelle fonti canoniche e non facili da inserire compiutamente nel contesto mitologico norreno. |

| has gloss | spa: Svipdagsmál ("El canto de Svipdag") es un poema en nórdico antiguo que forma parte de la Edda poética. Está conformado por dos poemas, Los hechizos de Groa y Los dichos de Fjölsvinnr. Las dos obras están agrupadas ya que tienen un narrador en común, Svipdag. Además al parecer tienen un origen en común ya que son muy similares en cuanto al uso del lenguaje, la estructura, el estilo y la métrica ljóðaháttr. |
