Treue Liebe
Text - B. Eduard Schulz
Ein Mägdlein saß am Meerestrand
Und blickte voll Sehnsucht ins Weite.
»Wo bleibst du, mein Liebster, Wo weilst du so lang?
Nicht ruhen läßt mich des Herzens Drang.
Ach, kämst du, mein Liebster, doch heute!«
Der Abend nahte, die Sonne sank
Am Saum des Himmels darnieder.
»So trägt dich die Welle mir nimmer zurück?
Vergebens späht in die Ferne mein Blick.
Wo find' ich, mein Liebster, dich wieder,
Die Wasser umspielten ihr schmeichelnd den Fuß,
Wie Träume von seligen Stunden;
Es zog sie zur Tiefe mit stiller Gewalt:
Nie stand mehr am Ufer die holde Gestalt,
Sie hat den Geliebten gefunden!
True Love
English Translation - Emily Ezust
A maiden sat by the seashore
And looked, full of longing, into the distance.
"Where are you, my lover? What is keeping you so long?
The turmoil of my heart gives me no rest.
Ah, if only you would come today, my love!"
The evening approached, the sun sank low
At the edge of the sky.
"So the waves will never then bring you back?
It is then in vain that I peer in the distance.
Where will I find you again, my beloved?«
The creeping water played about her feet,
Like a dream of blissful hours;
She was drawn to the depths by some silent power:
No more did that lovely form stand on the shore;
She had found her beloved again!

Speechless. Goosebumps all over.
Did the girl throw herself int the water?
My God. Thank you for this.
