She took him into her arms
And kissed his lips so red
Oh lips could you only speak
So my young heart could be healed
So my young heart could be healed.

She wrapped her coat around her
and jumped into the lake so green
Good night my father and mother
Never shall you see me again
Never shall you see me again.

The bells were tolling
There was sorrow and pain
for there lay two kings-children
but both were oh so dead
but both were oh so dead.
Originalversion
Audio (instrumental)

Wanna hug you, merrie, for the sake of your tears.

Many German Volkslieder (volkslieds ) are very sentimental. Lost love, wasted bliss, homesickness, forlornness... - crushingly beautific, tugging at the German soul's heartstrings...
*Sigh*

(BTW, the kitschy presentation on the web page clipped is a bit close to the bone. But I luv borderlandic experiences. )
