Be vigilant over your will and desires, for these are the corrupt forces that dwell within, and keep you from living free.&#8221;<\/em> &#8211;\u00a0John of the Cross<\/p>\n<p>A short time ago, I met a woman named Loralai (pronounced: &#8220;Laura-Lie&#8221;). We had a most wonderful conversation. While we were talking, I happened to comment on the beautiful sound of her name and asked about its origin. She proceeded to tell me it meant &#8220;River of Doom.&#8221; Intrigued by such a unique meaning, I asked her to continue.<\/p>\n<p>She began telling me of the Rhine River and <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Loreley\">Loreley Rock<\/a> which marks one of its most well-known and dangerous sections. As legend tells the story, a mermaid once lived on the very top of the rock. Through the fog, her seductive song would lure sailors to abandon ship in search of her&#8230; always resulting in their doom. Even those sailors who remained with the ship would become so enchanted with her song, they would often lose sight of the water and be washed ashore upon the rocks.<\/p>\n<p>Loralai ended the conversation by saying, &#8220;And that&#8217;s why you just don&#8217;t hear the name very often.&#8221; But the legend of the Lorelei had me hooked. The metaphor for life was so apparent I could not shake it from my mind. I meditated on the story for the rest of our time together and on into the evening&#8230; little did I know the most well-known poem about the Lorelei begins with a similar thought about its seductive nature, &#8220;<em>The legend haunts me and will not depart.<\/em>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Here is the full English translation of the German poem by Heinrich Heine, 1824.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>The Lorelei<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Translated by <a href=\"http:\/\/poemsintranslation.blogspot.com\/2009\/11\/heinrich-heine-lorelei-from-german.html\">A.Z. Foreman<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">I know not if there is a reason<br \/>\nWhy I am so sad at heart.<br \/>\nA legend of bygone ages<br \/>\nHaunts me and will not depart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The air is cool under nightfall.<br \/>\nThe calm Rhine courses its way.<br \/>\nThe peak of the mountain is sparkling<br \/>\nWith evening&#8217;s final ray.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The fairest of maidens is sitting<br \/>\nUnwittingly wondrous up there,<br \/>\nHer golden jewels are shining,<br \/>\nShe&#8217;s combing her golden hair.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The comb she holds is golden,<br \/>\nShe sings a song as well<br \/>\nWhose melody binds an enthralling<br \/>\nAnd overpowering spell.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">In his little boat, the boatman<br \/>\nIs seized with a savage woe,<br \/>\nHe&#8217;d rather look up at the mountain<br \/>\nThan down at the rocks below.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">I think that the waves will devour<br \/>\nThe boatman and boat as one;<br \/>\nAnd this by her song&#8217;s sheer power<br \/>\nFair Lorelei has done.<\/p>\n<p>To me, this poem serves as a metaphor and an enchanting reminder of the trappings of this world. This world can indeed be very seductive. And many have been caught up in its offerings, its temptations, and its passions for power. The world, its riches, and its fleeting pleasures call for our attention from mountaintops all around us. And often times in our zeal to achieve them, we lose sight of the very hazards before us.<\/p>\n<p>We were designed to live for far greater pursuits than the passions of this world. And with that as the metaphor, may the legend of the Lorelei always haunt our affections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Do not let your eye be drawn by the false beacon lamps of wealth, or position, or fame, or possessions.
