Play Minstrel Play [German translation]

Underneath the harvest moon

Where the ancient shadows will play and hide

With a ghostly tune and the devil's pride

"Stranger" whispered all the town

Has he come to save us from Satan's hand?

Leading them away to a foreign land

Play for me, minstrel, play

And take away our sorrows

Play for me, minstrel, play

And we'll follow

Hear, listen, can you hear

The haunting melody surrounding you?

Weaving a magic spell

All around you

Danger hidden in his eyes

We should have seen it from far away

Wearing such a thin disguise in the light of day

He held the answer to our prayers

Yet it was too good to be

Proof before our very eyes, yet we could not see

Play for me, minstrel, play

And take away our sorrows

Play for me, minstrel, play

And we'll follow

Hear, listen, can you hear

The haunting melody surrounding you?

Weaving a magic spell

All around you
