I cannot tell why this imagined,
Despair has fallen on me,
The ghost of an ancient legend,
That will not let me be.
The air is cool and twilight
Flows down the quiet Rhein,
A mountain alone in the highlight,
Still holds it's lingering shine.
The last peak rosily gleaming,
Reveals enthroned in air,
A maiden lost in dreaming,
Who combs her golden hair.
Coming her hair with a golden comb,
In her rocky bower,
She sings the tune of an olden song,
That has magical power.
The boatman has heard, it has bound him,
In the throws of a strange wild love,
Blind to the reefs that surround him,
He sees but the vision above.
Lo, hungry waters are stirring,
The boat and the boatman are gone.
Then silence and this with her singing,
The Lorelei has done.
Heinrich Heine
