Sonnenwende

So feierten einst die Ahnen das Fest
mit seinem innigen und sinnigen
und all das skaldische ahnende
brach dabei hervor, was tief verborgen
in Thuringia's edler Seele ruht
Noch grüssen aus der Heldenzeit
uns Sonnenwendfeuer mahnend herüber
doch im Geiste unseres Stammes lodert
die Lohe brennender Begeisterung
Wir aber schwören bei dem Flammengrabe
Balders, dem Lichtgott
heiligem Haupte
der da, unsterblich stets wiederkehrt
das Feuer zu pflegen immerdar
Treu bis in den Tod
Treu bis in den Tod
Nie wird erlöschen diese heilige Glut!
Nie wird erlöschen diese heilige Glut!
So feierten einst die Ahnen das Fest
mit seinem innigen und sinnigen
und all das skaldische ahnende
brach dabei hervor, was tief verborgen
in Thuringia's edler Seele,
Seele ruht
