by Bernhardt Severin Ingemann (1789 - 1862)
Translation Singable translation by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

Sulamiths sang på bjergtoppen
Language: Danish (Dansk) 
„Vend om, vend om, o Sulamith!
Og lad os skue dit øie!”
Hvad vil I vel see på Sulamith?
Hun dandser på Libanons høie.

„Vend om, o Sulamith, vend om!
Dands ei med tårer på kinden!”
På bjerget lig seirens dands jeg kom,
jeg dandser som bladet for vinden.

Sulamith auf dem Berggipfel
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Danish (Dansk) 
„Kehr' um, kehr' um, o Sulamith,
und lass ins Auge dir sehen!”
Was wollet Ihr seh'n auf Sulamith?  
Sie tanzet auf Libanons Höhen.

„Halt ein, halt ein, o Sulamith!
Du tanzt mit Weinen und Klagen!”
Im Siegestanz schwang sich Sulamith,
nun lass' ich vom Winde mich jagen!
