When the winds blows through the trees

When daylight is too far gone

And nightime falls on these desolate lands.

When a thin fog drifts over houses and farms

When darkness rules the village streets

And dogs are howling with fear.

When all the doors and windows are locked

When in the distance strange lights

Illuminate ghostly figures

And devilish shadows are flying high

Piercing with anguish the hearts of men

In this terrible night.

A sinister echo resounds in the air:

Walpurgisnacht!

Walpurgisnacht!

Walpurgisnacht!

S. Valpurga - Save us from evil!

S. Valpurga - Pray for our soul!
