My beloved I have waited so long

How can it be daylight keeps us apart

Make me assured it is you

and that no-one sees us



Oh my princess your eyes shine so bright

For your love I will give up my life

Make me...



Be aware of my father the king

If he sees us he will surely lock me in the tower

Make me...



Come to me at night

Whistle our tune at the feet of the tower

Make me...



Then I shall let out my hair

it will light up the night so you'll find your way

Make me...



He stayed with his princess all through the night

at down came the king

Make me...



Evil tongues came from far

their minds filled with envy

The princess with the golden hair

shall not see her beloved again



The king sentenced the young knight to death

blind for his daughters prayers

Make me...



When the third day came to an end

She drove a dagger through her ancient heart

Make me...
