Our translations:  ENG FRE
Hab' ich geträumt? klang hier nicht meine Laute?
Dort winkt die Halle, der ich einst entfloh.
Dies ist der Pallas, den Fürst Hermann baute,
Und doch so neu, so kunstverjüngt, so froh.

Wie preis' ich Euch, fremdliebliche Gestalten!
Wer ist, den nicht das Glück des Hauses rührt?
Wo wir gekriegt, will Schönheit friedlich walten.
Heil allen, die sie neu hier eingeführt!
