Traun! Bogen und Pfeil
Sind gut für den Feind,
Hülflos alleweil
Der Elende weint;
Dem Edlen blüht Heil,
Wo Sonne nur scheint,
Die Felsen sind steil,
Doch Glück ist sein Freund.

Elbette! Yay ve ok 
Düşmana karşı gereklidir. 
Her zaman çaresiz olan 
Zavallı ağlar.
Soyluya talih güler, 
Güneşin açtığı yerde; 
Kayalar sarptır, 
Ama şans onun dostudur.
