Fashion’s laws, indeed, may sever, but thy magic joins again; humankind is one forever ‘neath thy mild and gentle reign. 2 Joy, in nature’s wide dominion, mightiest cause of all is found; and ‘tis joy that moves the pinion, when the wheel of time goes round; from the bud she lures the flower, suns from out their orbs of light; distant spheres obey her power, far beyond all mortal sight. --- GERMAN - 1 Freude, schóner Götterfunken, Tochter aus Elysium, wir betreten feuertrunken, himmlische, dein Heiligtum. Deine Zauber binden wieder, was die Mode streng geteilt, alle Menschen werden Brúder, wo dein sanfter Flúgel weilt. 2 Freude heiefst die starke Feder in der ewigen Natur. Freude, Freude treibt die Ráder in der grossen Weltenuhr. Blumen lockt sie ausden Keimen, Sonnen aus dem Firmament, Spháren rollt sie in den Raumen, die des Sehers Rohr nicht kennt.
