Lorelei

Lorelei is a feminine water spirit, similar to a siren or mermaid. She sends sailors to their death by luring them near rocky shores with her beautiful songs.


The Temptress Lorelei

Through Ocean’s depths and waves I roam
In search of sailors long from home

Their tender ears will hear my song
No more of wives will they long

Upon my beauty their eyes will feast
Until I unleash my inner beast

I will claim them with my seductive charm
