Sonnenreigen [Lughnasad] [English translation]

In the golden morning hour

We move out of the valley

And we joyfully dance into

The early sunshine

We go high up the mountain peaks

To look into the eye of Lugh1

Let's celebrate this age

That summer holds ready

You let your ravens go

When the fields turn to gold

And the bright wheel

Revolves around Lughnasadh2

It's been a year ago

Since I saw you at the dance

Way too often in long nights

I have thought about you

King Summer leads the dance

I follow him in the blooming circle

And thus our vicious circle closes

To the well-known melody

You let your ravens go

When the fields turn to gold

And the bright wheel

Revolves around Lughnasadh

Soon the wheel will turn

Wild storms will blow

We approach winter with throaty singing

And so, the vicious circle starts all over again

Come and follow us in the dance

We want to make a large circle

When the fields turn to gold

We'll meet again

You let your ravens go

When the fields turn to gold

And the bright wheel

Revolves around Lughnasadh

1. In Celtic mythology, Lugh is the sun god.2. Lughnasadh is a Gaelic and Celtic holiday marking the beginning of the harvest season.
