Sommerträume ihr, purpurne Abende ... Odins waltender Speer Teilt die Wolkenbahn, und ein letzter Goldblitz flammt durch Luft und Land. Asgards heilige Hallen krönen den Himmel Blühende Götter wandeln in seliger Jugend Über die funkelnden Gefilde des Lichts. Sommertraüme ihr: purpurne Abende.

Rêves d'été, soirées pourpres... La lance d'Odin qui règne Divise le chemin dans les nuages, et un dernier Éclair doré s'enflamme à travers l'air et la terre. Les saintes voûtes d'Ásgard couronnent les cieux Tandis que des dieux ardents se promènent dans une jeunesse bénie Au-dessus des champs étincelants de lumières. Rêves d'été, soirées pourpres....
