Text heard on Sample:
They stamped the dust, they snuffed upon the air,
And all their movements had the fierce glee
Of power and pride and lust.

Of power and pride and lust! then with a shout
They tossed their heads and wheeled and galloped round
In furious brotherhood.

Text by James Stephens

Sie stampften wild und schnupperten die Lust:
Ein grimmig Bild,
Bewegungen voll von Kraft und Stolz und Lust.

Von Kraft und  Stolz und Lust.
Köpfe verdreht mit lautern Schrei,
Zurück und vorwärts gejagt vorbei
Mit Wut im spiel.

Übersetzung Berthold Goldschmidt
