Melt into trance. In the garden of roses

He is loved and loved for his crowned bird-ring.

Laurin the king of the rosy garden

Has a magic cloak the colour of mist,

And he goes invisibly wandering

Far from the bourne of the rosy garden

Like a cloud of pearl and of amethyst.

He seeks a bride for his garden of roses,

For the soulless spirit a human girl ...

(The priest bids me wear my cross and pray) ...
