translated by Joachim Gießner   translated by N. N. 01   translated by Mark Twain
 
        An ancient legend of the Rhine
 
Malgajon mi sentas en koro,   Ignoro, quid id sibi velit,   I cannot divine what it meaneth,
sed kial tia tim'?   Tristissimus cur sim,   This haunting nameless pain:
Legendo el pratempa foro   Antiqui aevi fabellam   A tale of the bygone ages
Vagadas tra mia anim'.   Cur saepe volverim.   Keeps brooding through my brain:
 
Jam fluas la Rejn' en malhelo,   Vesperascit et frigescit,   The faint air cools in the gloaming,
kaj malvarmetas l' aer'.   Et Rhenus leniter it,   And peaceful flows the Rhine,
Sed brilas la mont' en orbelo   Cacumen montis lucescit,   The thirsty summits are drinking
pro suna lum' de l' vesper'.   Dum Phoebus occidit.   The sunset's flooding wine;
 
Jen supre kabino provokas   Sedet in summo montis   The loveliest maiden is sitting
per ora juvelar',   Virgo pulcherrima,   High-throned in yon blue air,
kaj ŝia beleco allogas   Auro nitet gemma frontis,   Her golden jewels are shining,
kaj ŝia ora harar'.   Se pectit auricoma.   She combs her golden hair;
 
Ŝi kombas ĝin, kantas sorĉige,   Aureolo pectine pectit,   She combs with comb that is golden,
sirene kantas ŝi   Carmen canens procul,   And sings a weird refrain
per neimagebla, mirige   Mirandum id habet modum   That steeps in a deadly enchantment
potenca melodi'.   Nec non virilem simul.   The listener's ravished brain:
 
Ŝipiston en eta boato   In cymba navitam mille   The doomed in his drifting shallop,
Turmentas koremoci'.   Angores feri tenent,   Is tranced with the sad sweet tone,
Ne ĝenas lin rifo-kaskado,   Non videt scopulos ille,   He sees not the yawing breakers,
rigardas nur supren al ŝi!   Ocli non si sursum vident.   He sees but the maid alone:
 
Ĝis tiras kun si al Rejn-fundo   Opinor undas devorare   The pitiless billwos engulf him!-
la ondoj lin kun boat'.   Nautam cum navicula,   So perish sailor and bark;
Nun kuŝas li en la profundo   Effecit solo canendo   And this, with her baleful singing,
pro Loreleja kantad'.   Lurleia id dea.   Is the Lorelei's gruesome work.
