Morgenwinde wandeln
Wehend am Gestade,
Spielen mit der Hirtinn gold'nem Gelock.
Einsam seh' ich Wolken
Senken sich und steigen,
Und ruf' ein Lied hinein in den lichten Tanz.

Aslaug at the shore
Language: English  after the German (Deutsch)
Morning winds wander
Waftingly along the shores,
They play with the gold curls of the shepherdess.
Solitary, I see clouds
Drifting downward and rising,
And I shout a song into their bright dance.
