Musician's or Publisher's Notes

It is late, it’s getting cold,
why do you ride through the forest alone?
The wood is vast and you are alone,
You beautiful bride! I will lead you home!

“Great is men’s deceit and cunning
for pain my heart is broken,
the hunter’s horn wanders to and fro,
oh flee! You know not who I am.”

So richly decorated is steed and lady,
so wondrously beautiful the young form,
Now I know you - God be with me!
You are the Witch Loreley!

“You know me well -from the high cliff
my castle looks down into the Rhine.
It is late, it’s getting cold,
you will never again leave these woods!”
