Schöner als die Sterne [English translation]

Made out of fire and water, out of wind and stone

Created in the darkness and lit up by the first light

A spark of life, and the whole world blooms up

all the way up to the sky

The Silmaril crosses the sky

more magnificent than the stars

Upon us shines the Silmaril

which outshines the stars

Behold, elven people

behold and ponder

We fill up the earth with light and life sprit

We follow the rays that the morning shows us

Made out of dreams, light as a feather

protected by all the gods

The Silmaril crosses the sky

more magnificent than the stars

Upon us shines the Silmaril

which outshines the stars

A spark of life, and the whole world blooms up

all the way up to the sky

The Silmaril crosses the sky

more magnificent than the stars

Upon us shines the Silmaril

which outshines the stars

Behold, elven people

behold and ponder
