Along the meadows and valleys
one who appears as a queen regularly passes
drawn by the dark woods
her quickness measured like that of an eagle

with the icy frost of a thundering waterfall
her soul is cleansed
like a god
She thinks alone

Beloved by a god
immortal
under his protection
she exists

with infinite pleasure
she glimpses a different world

to her, the endlessly beautiful
yet indomitable one
the god Wotan himself
prepares to come forth

with a roaring of thunder
and the torrent of a cyclone
in human form
he reveals himself before her

in a sudden peace
with the dancing of forest souls
the pleasure of the gods
is made known to her

with infinite pleasure
she glimpses a different world

with the look of a demon
as seen from the outside
within one damned by the people
sprouts a godlike fruit

on human flesh
according to Wotan's wish
she fed uninhibited
so that his son would be strong

in this area thus damned
a mere man sometimes gets lost
so that the nourishment
of the god's princess should occur

on a sunny day
after the blissful pain
a great spirit
the light of the world came forth

at the celebration where
each one drunk of the nectar of the gods
with a majestic name
the heavenly son is christened

his name
awakens a sacred fear
Azothien
shall be his name

fed on heavenly nectar
the princess' son grows
a robust man
is already perceived
with the passing of baths in forest springs
a year of life has already pass
