Blut Im Auge [English translation]

What I have seen on my journey

Seems too true to tell

So I'll try in my own way

To take you there with me

As once on dark paths

Far from here in northern lands

Saw what took my breath away

What I didn't know until then

Blood in the eye

On sore knees

So I sank down

So I found her

So I determined to stay there

What I've seen didn't set me free

To discover her secret

The night was lorn for me

Day by day in grey rain

I searched for the view again

Have been fallen for the charm

I had never seen before

Blood in the eye

On sore knees

So I sank down

So I found her

Left behind the cities portals

I travelled up into icy heights

Thunderstorms, Thunder's lash

Tried myself to decay

Looked into the water's falls

Behind bushes, birche's groves

Restless views, grey the waves

Where might she have stayed?

Sleepless, restless I'm searching...

Quiet, whispering, she doesn't hear me...

Over rocks, mountains and heathland

Spinnet, thorns, darkness

I'm searching for her by night, the white one

Searching for the glistening heaven's sheen
