Wir schreiten in goldener Fülle Durch seliges Sommerland, Fest liegen [unsere]1 Hände Wie in einander gebannt. Die große Sommersonne Hat [unsere]2 Herzen erhellt, Wir schreiten in goldener Fülle Bis an das Ende der Welt. Und bleicht deine sinkende Stirne, Und läßt meine Seele ihr Haus, Wir schreiten in goldener Fülle Auch in das Jenseits hinaus. Wem solch ein Sommer beschieden, [Der lacht der flüchtigen Zeit]3 Wir schreiten in goldener Fülle Durch alle Ewigkeit.4

Nous marchons dans l'abondance dorée À travers le pays béni estival, Nos mains se tiennent fermement Comme liées l'une à l'autre. Le grand soleil d'été A illuminé nos cœurs. Nous marchons dans l'abondance dorée Jusqu'à la fin du monde. Et si ton front en s'abaissant pâlit Et si mon âme quitte sa demeure, Nous marcherons dans l'abondance dorée Aussi bien dans l'au delà. Celui à qui est accordé un tel été Rit du temps qui fuit. Nous marchons dans l'abondance dorée À travers l'éternité.
