An ancient legend of the Rhine                
 
I cannot divine what it meaneth,   Ignoro, quid id sibi velit,   Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten,   Ne scias mi, kial subita   I do not know what it signifies.
This haunting nameless pain:   Tristissimus cur sim,   daß ich so traurig bin;   malgaj' en la koro naskiĝis;   That I am so sorrowful?
A tale of the bygone ages   Antiqui aevi fabellam   ein Märchen aus alten Zeiten,   el tempo jam enterigita   A fable of old Times so terrifies,
Keeps brooding through my brain:   Cur saepe volverim.   das kommt mir nicht aus dem Sinn.   legendo al mi reviviĝis.   Leaves my heart so thoughtful.
 
The faint air cools in the gloaming,   Vesperascit et frigescit,   Die Luft ist kühl und es dunkelt,   Jam malvarmetiĝas l' aero,   The air is cool and it darkens,
And peaceful flows the Rhine,   Et Rhenus leniter it,   und ruhig fließt der Rhein;   la Rejno mallaŭte babilas,   And calmly flows the Rhine;
The thirsty summits are drinking   Cacumen montis lucescit,   der Gipfel des Berges funkelt   per oro de l'sun' en vespero   The summit of the mountain hearkens
The sunset's flooding wine;   Dum Phoebus occidit.   im Abendsonnenschein.   la supro de l' monto rebrilas.   In evening sunshine line.
 
The loveliest maiden is sitting   Sedet in summo montis   Die schönste Jungfrau sitzet   Plej belan knabinon mi vidas:   The most beautiful Maiden entrances
High-throned in yon blue air,   Virgo pulcherrima,   dort oben wunderbar,   en ora ornamo brilante,   Above wonderfully there,
Her golden jewels are shining,   Auro nitet gemma frontis,   ihr goldnes Geschmeide blitzet,   sur supro de l' monto ŝi sidas,   Her beautiful golden attire glances,
She combs her golden hair;   Se pectit auricoma.   sie kämmt ihr goldenes Haar.   la harojn mistere kombante.   She combs her golden hair.
 
She combs with comb that is golden,   Aureolo pectine pectit,   Sie kämmt es mit goldenem Kamme,   La oran kombilon ŝi movas   With golden comb so lustrous,
And sings a weird refrain   Carmen canens procul,   und singt ein Lied dabei;   kaj kantas tra l' pura aero,   And thereby a song sings,
That steeps in a deadly enchantment   Mirandum id habet modum   das hat eine wundersame,   kaj forto mirinda sin trovas   It has a tone so wondrous,
The listener's ravished brain:   Nec non virilem simul.   gewaltige Melodei.   en tiu ĉi kant' de l'vespero.   That powerful melody rings.
 
The doomed in his drifting shallop,   In cymba navitam mille   Den Schiffer im kleinen Schiffe   Ŝipet' iras sur la rivero,   The shipper in the little ship
Is tranced with the sad sweet tone,   Angores feri tenent,   ergreift es mit wildem Weh;   ŝipisto ektremis de l' kanto,   It effects with woe sad might;
He sees not the yawing breakers,   Non videt scopulos ille,   er schaut nicht die Felsenriffe,   kaj blinda por ĉiu danĝero   He does not see the rocky slip,
He sees but the maid alone:   Ocli non si sursum vident.   er schaut nur hinauf in die Höh.   rigardas li al la kantanto.   He only regards dreaded height.
 
The pitiless billwos engulf him!-   Opinor undas devorare   Ich glaube, die Wellen verschlingen   Ha, baldaŭ ŝipisto la bela   I believe the turbulent waves
So perish sailor and bark;   Nautam cum navicula,   am Ende Schiffer und Kahn;   perdiĝis sub l' akvoturnado;   Swallow the last shipper and boat;
And this, with her baleful singing,   Effecit solo canendo   und das hat mit ihrem Singen   ĝin Lorelej' faris kruela,   She with her singing craves
Is the Lorelei's gruesome work.   Lurleia id dea.   die Lorelei getan.   per sia mirinda kantado.   All to visit her magic moat.
