Salamander, gleam candescent!
Thou, Undine, shalt wreathe and coil!
Sylph, disperse thee evanescent!
Goblin, thou shalt toil and moil!

[Salamander, soll glühen,
Undene sich winden,
Sylphe verschwinden,
Kobold sich mühen.]

Salamander must be glowing,
Undine self-coiling,
Sylph vanish in going,
Kobold keep toiling.

Salamander shall glow,
Undine twine,
Sylph vanish,
Kobold be moving.

Salamander shall kindle,
Writhe nymph of the wave,
In air sylph shall dwindle,
And Kobold shall slave.

Salamander shall glisten,
     Undina lapse lightly,
     Sylph vanish brightly,
     Kobold quick listen.

Salamander, shine glorious!
Wave, Undine, as bidden!
Sylph, be thou hidden!
Gnome, be laborious!

Let the Salamander glow,
Undene twine her crested wave,
Silphe into ether flow,
And Kobold vex him, drudging slave!

Undene shall grieve,
Sylphe shall leave,
Kobold shall toil.

Sylphs of the air,
Kobolds below!

Undine, flow near,
Sylph, disappear,
Gnome, be delving.
