Wilde Rose [English translation]

Woe, woe, my heart is heavy

Forever, I parted with my beloved,

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

Woe, woe, my heart is heavy

In the spring, I parted with my beloved,

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

My beloved fought in the battle evermore,

And cried out: "As long as I'm victorious,

Will this wild rose bloom"

I gave his name to the flower

She bloomed, proud and unshakable

Until one night, then the winter came

Woe, woe, my heart is heavy

In the spring, I parted with my beloved,

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

I will see him soon1 - I am so worried

A brief came in which it was written

That he died as a hero in a faraway land,

A rose firmly held in his hand

Woe, woe, my heart is heavy

Forever, I parted with my beloved,

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

Woe, woe, my heart is heavy

Forever, I parted with my beloved,

His wild rose does not bloom anymore

I am - oh - so cold, he won't ever come anymore

1. Or 'Will I see him soon', I guess. The word order seems a bit strange to me.
