Translation
Bilingual
Did I abuse her or show her disdain?
Why does she run from me?
If I should lose her, how shall I regain
The heart she has won from me?
Agony!
Beyond power of speech
When the one thing you want
Is the only thing out of your reach
High in her tower, she sits by the hour
Maintaining her hair
Blithe and becoming, and frequently humming
A light-hearted aire
Ah
Agony!
Far more painful than yours
When you know she would go with you
If there only were doors
Agony!
Oh, the torture they teach
What's as intriguing
Or half so fatiguing
As what's out of reach?
Am I not sensitive, clever, well-mannered, considerate
Passionate, charming, as kind as I'm handsome
And heir to a throne?
You are everything maidens could wish for!
Then why "no"?
Do I know?
The girl must be mad
You know nothing of madness!
'Till your climbing her hair
And you see her up there
As you're nearing her
All the while hearing her
"Aaaahh"
ย
Agony!
Misery!
Woe!
Though it's different for each
Always ten steps behind
Always ten feet below
And she's just out of reach
Agony!
That can cut like a knife
I must have her
To wife
