I do not know what haunts me,
What saddened my mind all day;
An age-old tale confounds me,
A spell I just cannot allay.The air is cool and in twilight
The Rhine's dark waters flow;
The peak of the mountain in highlight
Reflects the evening glow.There sits a lovely maiden
Above so wondrous fair,
With shining jewels laden,
She combs her golden hair.It falls through her comb in a shower,
And over the valley rings
A song of mysterious power
That lovely maiden sings.The boatman in his small skiff
Is seized by a turbulent love,
No longer he marks where the cliff is,
He looks to the mountain above.I think the waves must fling him
Against the reefs nearby,
And that did with her singing
The lovely Loreley.
