To translate theme to another language, use swt.pot file from theme/languages folder. We recommend using Poedit for this purpose. Open swt.pot using Poedit, click File / Save as and name it swt-de_DE (de_DE is for German translation, en_US for English American etc...). Off course, your site needs to be running in the same language.
