Stroh zu Gold [English translation]

A strange murmuring

a whispering went through the town

they said that one of the girls

might have a secret

Quickly the message arrived at the castle

there they locked her up

her chamber full of straw

and she was all alone

Her father has lied

he was a drunkard

er bragged at the marketplace

she'd weave the straw into gold

The morning came and went

but nobody managed

the art of weaving the straw

into gold that shines lusty

So they found the girl

with straw in her blonde hair

and tears in her eyes

now hear what happened then

Her father has lied

he was a drunkard

er bragged at the marketplace

she'd weave the straw into gold

she'd weave the straw into gold

Quickly the message arrived in the city

about the destiny of that maid

her father pled in vain

now for mercy

The gold in her heart

he started to understand

was the only thing that counted

now he could see it

see it in her eyes

Her father has lied

he was a drunkard

er bragged at the marketplace

she'd weave the straw into gold

she'd weave the straw into gold

she'd weave the straw into gold
