1) Magma is the brain-child of drummer/composer Christian Vander formed in Paris, France in 1969, disbanded in 1983 and reformed in 1996. Starting with a base of experimental rock heavily influenced by jazz and 20th century classical music, the band developed such a unique style of progressive rock that it became a new genre called Zeuhl. Characterized by insistent and repetitive rhythms, dramatic vocals, virtuosic solos, heavy bass playing, and jazzy drums, Zeuhl has been emulated by numerous followers from all over the world. Almost all of Magma's lyrics are sung in the constructed language known as "Kobaïan" and concerns a lengthy saga about Earth and the planet Kobaïa, with spiritual and environmental themes.
2) Magma is a progressive folk group from Argentina. The music retains strong Andean influences and is notable for incorporating the flutes of the region. Their output is notable for meshing the Andean elements with Spanish folk guitar and the adoption of European song structures and instrumentation. Extended prog and folk songs see the use of both Mellotron and pan flutes. Despite being an 1980s outfit, their music is reminiscent of 70s progressive rock and 60s/70s folk. Truly a great example of music transculturation on various levels.
3) Magma is a German progressive/spacey band that recorded an album called Rock Duo Magma in 1975.

The lyrics to Magma's song "Dëümb ëwëlëss dölëhn" are in a language called Kobaïan, which is an invented language created by the band's founder and composer, Christian Vander. The meaning of the lyrics can be subjective as Kobaïan is not a fully developed language and does not have a direct translation. However, the emotions and atmosphere of the song can still be interpreted.
The repetition of the phrase "Magma ïss dëh hündin ë" and "Blün Uniwëria Zëkt" throughout the song creates a hypnotic and mesmerizing effect. The word "hündin" means "hound" or "dog" in English, while "Blün Uniwëria Zëkt" can be understood as a reference to the band's album of the same name.
The phrase "§' Nünd ë" and the subsequent repetition of "Magma ïss hündin uz tendiwa" adds a sense of urgency and intensity to the song. The repeated use of the word "dëh" may signify emphasis or importance.
In the latter part of the song, the lyrics mention "Kreuhn Köhrmahn" and "Kobaïa" multiple times. These words are significant in the mythological narrative that Magma weaves through their music. Kobaïa is a fictional planet that serves as the setting for Magma's story, and Kreuhn Köhrmahn is a central figure in that narrative.
Overall, the lyrics of "Dëümb ëwëlëss dölëhn" create an otherworldly and mysterious atmosphere, emphasizing the mystical and fantastical elements that Magma often explores in their music.
