Heilige Welt [English translation]

Rustling winds blow

still throughout (the) grey night.

Though in pale light

soon the earth awakes.

Hesitant first hope

flows into the morning

And a touch of life

silently passes by.

Long forgotten, but strongly rooted in the heart, lives

A deep yearning for inexhaustibility.

And the powers of nature, they will rise again.

Eternally the earth rethrives, forever flourishes anew.

Fire has to burn,

Flames blazing through the night.

Water has to flow

untamed holy force.

Earth has to grow,

to make the corn of life flourish.

Through fog coloured skies flows

murmur of immortality.

What became worthy of death, blooms constantly anew

Unstoppable the world turns.

How, from conflagration, a pulse glows in your veins.

May the worlds dream be sacredly elucidated.

Through the mountains, through the woods

a solid tone emerges,

Announces the new life,

reveals to us, what humans (have) lost.

Furiously it runs throughout the earth

Like a tremor (quake) it emerges,

Heavenwards a glow enlightens *

setting free the destiny.
