Heinrich Heine, |
| translated by L. W. Garnham |
| I do not know what it signifies. |
| That I am so sorrowful? |
| A fable of old Times so terrifies, |
| Leaves my heart so thoughtful. |
| The air is cool and it darkens, |
| And calmly flows the Rhine; |
| The summit of the mountain hearkens |
| In evening sunshine line. |
| The most beautiful Maiden entrances |
| Above wonderfully there, |
| Her beautiful golden attire glances, |
| She combs her golden hair. |
| With golden comb so lustrous, |
| And thereby a song sings, |
| It has a tone so wondrous, |
| That powerful melody rings. |
| The shipper in the little ship |
| It effects with woe sad might; |
| He does not see the rocky slip, |
| He only regards dreaded height. |
| I believe the turbulent waves |
| Swallow the last shipper and boat; |
| She with her singing craves |
| All to visit her magic moat. |
