Beugt euch aus euern Wolken nieder
Language: German (Deutsch) after the English
Beugt euch aus [euern]1 Wolken nieder,
ihr Geister meiner Väter, [beugt]2 euch,
legt ab das rothe Schrecken eures Laufs.
Empfangt den fallenden Führer!
Er komme aus einem entfernten Land,
oder [steig]3 aus dem tobenden Meer!
Sein Kleid von Nebel sey nah,
sein Speer aus einer Wolke gestaltet.
[Stell ein halb erloschenes Luftbild an seine Seite,
in Gestalt des Helden-Schwerts.]4
Und ach sein Gesicht sey lieblich,
Daß seine Freunde frolocken in seiner Gegenwart!
[Beugt]5 euch aus [euern]1 Wolken nieder!
ihr Geister meiner Väter, [beugt]2 euch.

Penchez‑vous depuis vos nuages
Language: French (Français) after the German (Deutsch)
Penchez-vous depuis vos nuages,
Fantômes de mes pères, penchez-vous !
Déposez la terreur rouge de votre course !
Recevez le chef qui meurt,
Qu'il vienne d'une terre éloignée,
Ou qu'il monte de la mer en tempête.
Que sa robe de brume soit proche,
Que sa lance soit formée d'un nuage,
Que son épée d'un mirage éteint,
Et ah, que son visage soit aimable
Que ses amis se réjouissent de sa présence.
Oh, penchez-vous depuis vos nuages,
Fantômes de mes pères, penchez-vous !
