Rolle, du strömigter Carun, rolle in Freuden vorbey; die Söhne des Kampfes entflohn! Man sieht das Roß in unsern Feldern nicht mehr; die Flügel ihres Stolzes spreiten sich in [andern]1 Ländern. Nun wird die Sonne in Frieden aufgehn, und Schatten in Freude [herabsteigen]2. Die Stimme der Jagd wird vernommen; die Schilde hangen in der Halle. Frohlocken werden wir im Kriege des Meers; Unsere Hände werden roth im Blute von Lochlin. Rolle, du strömigter Carun, rolle in [Freude]3 vorbey; die Söhne des Kampfes entflohn!

Scorri, scorri con gioia Torrente Carun, sono fuggiti i figli della battaglia! Nei nostri campi non ci sono più destrieri E le ali della superbia Si sono spiegate in terre straniere. Ora il sole sorgerà nella pace E nella gioia scenderanno le ombre. Si udranno solo voci di cacciatori E gli scudi saranno appesi nei saloni. Canteremo vittoria nella guerra del mare, le nostre mani diventeranno rosse nel sangue di Lochin! Scorri, scorri con gioia Torrente Carun, sono fuggiti i figli della battaglia!
