Mit dem Pfeil, dem Bogen, Durch Gebirg' und Tal Kommt der Schütz gezogen Früh am Morgenstrahl. Wie im Reich der Lüfte König ist der Weih -- Durch Gebirg und Klüfte Herrscht der Schütze frei. Ihm gehört das Weite, Was sein Pfeil erreicht, Das ist seine Beute, Was da kreucht und fleugt.

Amb les fletxes i l’arc, a través de muntanyes i valls, tresca l’arquer a la primera llum del matí. Tal com al reialme dels aires el rei és el milà, a través muntanyes i afraus, l’arquer regna lliurement. Els espais oberts li pertanyen, tot el que la seva fletxa abasta és la seva presa, tant si s’arrossega com si vola.
