Loreley Song
Text by Heinrich Heine written in 1823

I wonder why I am so weary,
What’s making me so depressed,
It must be the tale old and dreary,
That’s keeping my mind quite obsessed.

The air is ’cool, night is sinking,
And quietly ‘flowing the Rhine,
The tops of the mountains are blinking,
In purple-red sun-setting shine.

There’s sitting high up in the light
A maiden so beautiful, fair
Her jewels are glistening bright
She combs her gold shimmering hair.

Her comb is of most precious gold,
She’s combing and singing so sweet
Bewitching young fishers and old
Their hearts start to quiver and beat.

There’s a man in his boat on the river,
He cannot but listen and stare,
A longing is making him shiver,
Look out, the rock’s ledge, oh beware!

I fear there’s a crash, the boat sinking,
The man will be swallowed and gone,
And that with melodious singing
The Loreley will have done.
