Her breath grey as fog, with a ghostly body
There she sweeps snow in the moonlight, the beautiful ash maiden
In a dress of ice crystals, she sweeps all night
Sweet and lovely laughing, until the day awakens

She sweeps the white of the sky, swirling around her
And dances on bare feet, obsessed and twisted
And if you follow her voice, which pulls through the alleys
Then you will soon hear her cold winter song

Tonight I am devoted to you
My ice burns only for you alone
Dance with me through the ash rain
Tonight here in the moonlight

Cold ash
Falls only for us alone
Cold ash
Dance with me here in the moonlight

And when she tenderly holds you in her hands
You see that only white ash falls from the sky
The world lies in ruins, coal-black and burned out
And your frozen heart glows in her hand

And while she snuggles laughing into your arms
Then she sings you her cold winter song

Tonight I am devoted to you
My ice burns only for you alone
Dance with me through the ash rain
Tonight here in the moonlight

Cold ash
Falls only for us alone
Cold ash
Dance with me here in the moonlight

Her breath grey as smoke, with a spindle-thin body
She appears to you in the moonlight, the old ash woman
In the scorched dress, it sweeps all night
Ice and dust and ash, until the day awakens
Ice and dust and ash, until the day awakens

Tonight I am devoted to you
My ice burns only for you alone
Dance with me through the ash rain
Tonight here in the moonlight

Cold ash
Falls only for us alone
Cold ash
Dance with me here in the moonlight
Tonight, here in the moonlight
