Since the first of you and me asleep   In a Nibelungen land   Titanic curses trap me in   A banishment of stay   Symbols vanish from my senses   Stem and stave the view appears      Symbols captured in a trance   Vanish from my glance   For the various defenses   I enforce a strike the alarm   For the various defences   That choose to be here and there   And lose the direction everywhere      Since the first of you and me asleep   In a Nibelungen land where we cannot be   Almond trees grow along the mountain trail   From their tongues the words are spelling   The telling numb      I cannot hear it anymore   I cannot hear it anymore      Since the first of you and me here and there   We lose the direction everywhere   Shrieking city sun shiver in my veins   In flames I run   In flames I run   Waiting for the sign to come      Will you spell the words for me   Will you spell the words for me to hear   Nibelungen   Nibelungen   Nibelungen land
