Rheingold Lyrics

Rheingold lyrics

In the depths of the river

Deep in the waves

Three Rhine Maidens are singin'

Songs of the brave



An ugly dwarf

Greedy with pleasure

Desires of the gold

Tries to steal the treasure



Guardians of the holy treasure

No cheat should steal it from the river

Gleaming glow in the water's depth

Shines brightly, bravely through the waves



Rheingold, Rheingold

Rheingold, Rheingold



Who denies love

Who forfeits its power

Can attain the magic

To forge a ring



If you are unarmored

And longing for love

Let's see my handsome

What you look like?



Guardians of the holy treasure

No cheat should steal it from the river

Gleaming glow in the water's depth

Shines brightly, bravely through the waves



Rheingold, Rheingold

Rheingold, Rheingold



Aren't you afraid?

Brood of the waters

Then conquer the dark

And I'll put out your light



I wrench the gold from the rock

Forge the ring of revenge

For hell and the devil

I curse my love



Guardians of the holy treasure

No cheat should steal it from the river

Who from the Rheingold will fashion the ring

Win the world's wealth and will be king?



Rheingold, Rheingold
