Die Rose im Wasser [English translation]

There is a nest for little water rats in the hair

So floats her slim body with a stream

She is so pale and cold that a willow

Cried so many leaves in a silent agony

And the rings in the water around her are blooming roses

Red are for love

White are for death

An old salamander is sitting on the bank

And a dragon head appeared in the sunlight

He doesn't know anything about the yound woman's pain

Anything about cruelty and anything about love

And the rings in the water around her are blooming roses

Red are for love

White are for death

The sunset glided her cheeks

An eel is slipping over her white chest

And through the branches breathed her last

A touch of sadness and a touch of lust

And the rings in the water around her are blooming roses

Red are for love

White are for death
