It's actually just the Norwegian Rune Poem but written in Eldar Futhark characters for flavor.

ᚠ Fé vældr frænda róge;
føðesk ulfr í skóge.

ᚢ Úr er af illu jarne;
opt løypr ræinn á hjarne.

ᚦ Þurs vældr kvinna kvillu;
kátr værðr fár af illu.

ᚬ Óss er flæstra færða
fǫr; en skalpr er sværða.

ᚱ Ræið kveða rossom væsta;
Reginn sló sværðet bæzta.

ᚴ Kaun er barna bǫlvan;
bǫl gørver nán fǫlvan.

ᚼ Hagall er kaldastr korna;
Kristr skóp hæimenn forna.

ᚾ Nauðr gerer næppa koste;
nøktan kælr í froste.

ᛁ Ís kǫllum brú bræiða;
blindan þarf at læiða.

ᛅ Ár er gumna góðe;
get ek at ǫrr var Fróðe.

ᛋ Sól er landa ljóme;
lúti ek helgum dóme.

ᛏ Týr er æinendr ása;
opt værðr smiðr blása.

ᛒ Bjarkan er laufgrønstr líma;
Loki bar flærða tíma.

ᛘ Maðr er moldar auki;
mikil er græip á hauki.

ᛚ Lǫgr er, fællr ór fjalle
foss; en gull ero nosser.

ᛦ Ýr er vetrgrønstr viða;
vænt er, er brennr, at sviða.

And English:

ᚠ Fe
Wealth is a source of discord among kinsmen;
the wolf lives in the forest.

ᚢ Ur
Dross comes from bad iron;
the reindeer often races over the frozen snow.

ᚦ Thurs
Giant causes anguish to women;
misfortune makes few men cheerful.

ᚬ As
Estuary is the way of most journeys;
but a scabbard is of swords.

ᚱ Reidh
Riding is said to be the worst thing for horses;
Reginn forged the finest sword.

ᚴ Kaun
Ulcer is fatal to children;
death makes a corpse pale.

ᚼ Hagall
Hail is the coldest of grain;
Christ created the world of old.

ᚾ Naudhr
Constraint gives scant choice;
a naked man is chilled by the frost.

ᛁ Isa
Ice we call the broad bridge;
the blind man must be led.

ᛅ Ar
Plenty is a boon to men;
I say that Frodi was generous.

ᛋ Sol
Sun is the light of the world;
I bow to the divine decree.

ᛏ Tyr
Tyr is a one-handed god;
often has the smith to blow.

ᛒ Bjarkan
Birch has the greenest leaves of any shrub;
Loki was fortunate in his deceit.

ᛘ Madhr
Man is an augmentation of the dust;
great is the claw of the hawk.

ᛚ Logr
A waterfall is a River which falls from a mountain-side;
but ornaments are of gold.

ᛦ Yr
Yew is the greenest of trees in winter;
it is wont to crackle when it burns.
