Es lebte ein Weib im Norden am Meer,
zwei Töchter gebar sie, es ist lange her,
die Eine war hell und von schöner Gestalt,
die Ältere aber war dunkel und kalt.
Die Eifersucht nagte an ihr Jahr und Tag,
sie wünschte, die Schönere läge im Grab,
und dann eines Tages, der Wind wehter sehr,
da stieß sie die Schwester vom Felsen hinab ins Meer.
Der Wind und die Wogen sie tosen und schrei'n,
weit über die Klippen, laut über den Stein,
doch durch den Wind und die Wogen dringen Töne herbei,
die Stimme des Mädchens, ein Lied wie ein Schrei.
Zwei Spielleute gingen am windigen Strand,
sie fanden den leblosen Körper im Sand,
sie nahmen ihr Haar, sie nahmen ihr Bein,
sie bauten die Harfe, das Lied zu befrei'n.
Als sie sie stellten am Strand in den Wind,
begann sie zu spielen, sie weinten sich blind,
so traurig erklang eine Weise und leisgab sie den namen der Mörderin preis.
Der Wind und die Wogen sie tosen und schrei'n,
weit über die Klippen, laut über den Stein,
doch durch den Wind und die Wogen dringen Töne herbei,
die Stimme des Mädchens.
Oh grausame Schwester, was hast du getan,
das Mädchen getötet im fiebrigen Wahn,
mit Neid im Herzen, mit Bosheit im Bauch,
nun wartet die Hölle, sie töten dich auch!
Der Wind und die Wogen sie tosen und schrei'n,
weit über die Klippen, laut über den Stein,
doch durch den Wind und die Wogen dringen Töne herbei,
die Stimme des Mädchens, ein Lied wie ein Schrei.
Subway to Sally is a German musical group formed in Potsdam in the early 1990s. Their sound is based on a combination of rock, folk and medieval influences, with gothic and metal elements added over the years. The constant use of oriental sounds and classical music elements (such as the intricate vocal harmonies) along with instruments less common in the metal genre, such as the shawm, violin, hurdy-gurdy and lute, have led to their style being defined as "medieval metal". The band has released 9 studio albums, two live albums and two live DVDs. Their popularity is mainly concentrated in German-speaking countries, with a limited number of concerts abroad.
