In case you need a bit of energy boost to get you through May Day, because your Walpurgisnacht may have gone rather late, today’s poem is actually a song! Turn up the volume and dance!

 

 

In case you’re curious about the lyrics, here’s a translation from the German:

Into the evening sky rise
Tonight the sorcery
Wild people and Lilith’s kind
Steady winds winds

Let us go to the fires streak
Round to grab the stars
Good and evil words
Carrying us tonight

In the willows our dreams will sound
And the winds will Sing our songs
Let’s jump over the fire with the sparks
In the Walpurgis night!

Hear the violins, hear the violins
The fire is kindled!
Follow the dance, follow the dance
In the Walpurgis night!

Fierce in the game of the violins
Turns our nightly dance
And we step wild and free
This ancient spell at

Once only I’m big circles
We dance in that way
Until the first morning light
Our dream fabric breaks

In the willows our dreams will sound
And the winds Will sing our songs
Let’s jump with the spark over the fire
In the Walpurgis night!

Hear the violins, hear the violins
The fire is kindled!
Follow the dance, follow the dance
In the Walpurgis night!
