Lady Isobel, mit Haut wie Elfenbein
Lady Isobel, with skin like ivory
Der Sommer kam und zog vorbei
The summer came and passed by
Doch du bliebst allein
But you remained alone
Lady Isobel, blick in mein Gesicht
Lady Isobel, look into my face
Denn ich fürchte du weisst nicht
For I fear you don't know
Wie wichtig du mir bist
How important you are to me
Lady Isobel mit rabenschwarzem Haar
Lady Isobel with raven-black hair
Durch buntes Glas siehst du die Welt
Through colored glass you see the world
Und vergisst wie sie einst war
And forget how it once was
Lady Isobel mit einem Glas voll Wein
Lady Isobel with a glass full of wine
Wirst du in deinem Bett aus Klee
Will you in your bed of clover
Einst meine Zuflucht sein
Someday be my refuge

Elfenbein — ivory

Elfenbein translates directly to "ivory". It's a beautiful and somewhat archaic word that evokes images of preciousness and delicate beauty.

In "Lady Isobel," the lyrics describe Lady Isobel's skin as being "mit Haut wie Elfenbein" (with skin like ivory). This comparison highlights her pale, exquisite complexion, painting a vivid and romantic picture of her appearance. It's a word that adds a touch of classic elegance to the song.
