Krieger [English translation]

Wounded pride, the game of deception

The great warrior has almost accomplished his goal

To kill the hero, that's the plan

-the plan which was devised in delirium

But invincibility is his obstacle

And only with cunning and the course of time

did he learn of the linen leaf

that landed on the hero's shoulder

The blow of the warrior

is the hero's downfall!

The dragon-killer dies alone...

The warrior's iniquity is the hero's agony!

And yet, the hero shall live on1...

The warrior invited the hero

To a hunt in the forest, just the two of them

He was to have an accident

A stitched cross marked the target2

Thirst forced the hero to kneel

Defenseless, at a spring.

As the warrior then threw his spear

There was no escape!

The hero is ceremonially layed out,

He is escorted in a convoy

The murderer nears, the wound bleeds

Time will be the judge.

1. in the sense of being immortalized through fame2. literally, a stitched cross marked the sorrow
