Brünnhilde, heilige Braut!, Siegfried's aria from Die Götterdämmerung

Brünnhilde! 
Heilige Braut!
Wach' auf! öffne dein Auge!
Wer verschloß dich
wieder in Schlaf?
Wer band dich in Schlummer so bang?
Der Wecker kam;
er küßt dich wach,
und aber - der Braut
bricht er die Bande:
da lacht ihm Brünnhildes Lust! -
Ach! Dieses Auge,
ewig nun offen!
Ach, dieses Atems
wonniges Wehen!
Süßes Vergehen -
seliges Grauen:
Brünnhild' bietet mir - Gruß!
