Der zürnende Barde
Language: German (Deutsch)
Available translation(s): CAT DUT ENG FRE ITA
Wer wagt's, wer wagt's, wer wagt's,
Wer will mir die Leier zerbrechen,
Noch tagt's, noch tagt's, noch tagt's,
Noch glühet die Kraft, mich zu rächen.
Heran, heran, ihr alle,
Wer immer sich erkühnt,
Aus dunkler Felsenhalle
Ist mir die Leier [ergrünt]1.
Ich habe das Holz gespalten
Aus riesigem Eichenbaum,
Worunter einst die Alten
Umtanzten Wodans Saum.
Die Saiten raubt ich der Sonne,
Den purpurnen, glühenden Strahl,
Als einst sie in seliger Wonne
Versankt in das blühende Tal.
Aus alter Ahnen Eichen,
Aus rotem Abendgold
Wirst Leier du nimmer weichen,
So lang die Götter mir hold.

El bard enutjat
Language: Catalan (Català)  after the German (Deutsch)
Qui gosa,
qui vol fer malbé la meva lira,
encara és de dia
i em consumeix encara l'afany de venjar-me.
Veniu, veniu tots vosaltres,
a veure qui s'atreveix,
de fosques estances de roca
ha brostat la meva lira.
Jo he tallat la fusta
d'un roure gegantí,
sota el que fa molt temps els antics
dansaven cerclant l'orla de Wotan.
Les cordes les he robat del sol,
els raigs fulgurants, purpuris,
que un cop, en un goig beatífic,
ell espargí a la vall radiant.
Feta de vells roures ancestrals,
de l'or rogenc del capvespre,
oh lira meva, tu mai em deixaràs
mentre que els déus em siguin favorables.
