|
- A dream of love
- I too recall;
- I saw thee there
- And yearned for thee sore!
|
| Sieglinde
|
- The stream has shown me
- My imaged face——
Again I see it before me;
As in the pool it arose
It is reflected by thee.
|
| Siegmund
|
- Thine is the face
- I hid in my heart.
|
| Sieglinde
Quickly averting her gaze.
|
- O hush! That voice!
- O let me listen!
- These tones as a child
- Surely I heard——
But no! I heard the sound lately,
When, calling in the wood,
My voice re-echoing rang.
|
| Siegmund
|
- To sweet and melodious
- Music I listen!
|
| Sieglinde
Gazing into his eyes again.
|
- And ere now thy glowing
- Eye have I seen:
- The old man whose glance
- Solaced my grief,
When he greeted me had that eye——
- I knew him
- Because of his eye,
And almost addressed him as father.
[After a pause.
Art thou Weh wait in truth?
|
| Siegmund
|
- If dear to thee,
- Wehwalt no more;
My sway is o’er bliss not sorrow!
