Please note: Aside from the first verse, third verse and last verse, all of these are estimates.
Uses english grammar, so each word should match to its counterpart.
Accurate draconic, semi-accurate english (with horrible draconic).
Also I apologize for the table looking shitty, but this is just for my amusement.

Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, Naal ok zin los vahriin wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal! | Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honour is sworn to keep evil forever at bay and the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray! |
Huzrah nu, kul do od, wah aan bok lingrah vod, Ark fin tey, baziik fun, do fin gein! | Hearken now, sons of snow, to an age long ago, And the tale, boldly told, of the one! |
Wo lost fron wah ney dov, ark fin reyliik do jul, Voth aan suleyk wah rohit faal krein! | Who was kin to both wyrm, and the races of man, With a power to rival the sun! |
Ahrk fin kel lost prodah, do ved viing ko fin krah, tol fod zeymah win kein, meyz fundein Alduin, feyn do jun, kruziik vokun staadnau, voth aan bahlok wah diivon fin lein! | And the scrolls have fortold, of black wings in the cold, that when brothers wage war, come unfurled. Alduin, bane of kings, ancient shadow unbound, with a hunger to swallow the world! |
Nuz aan sul, fent alok, fod fin vul dovah nok, fen kos nahlot mahfaeraak, ahrk ruz! Paaz Keizaal fen kos stin nol bein Alduin jot! | But a day shall arise, when dark dragon's lies, will be silenced forever, and then! Fair Skyrim will be free from foul Alduin's maw! |
Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, Naal ok zin los vahriin wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal! | Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honour is sworn to keep evil forever at bay and the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray! |
