okay, so most of my knowledge comes from a rough translation of the german lyrics so bear with me:
basically, a wounded man with blood in his eyes (hence in the title which means Blood in the Eye) is weak and near dying, possibly from a battle. he falls onto his knees and looks up and lo and behold, he sees the most beautiful sight ever, which restores him (i'm not really sure if it was a beautiful paradise or an actual woman he saw. however, he refers to the sight as "her" throughout the song).
determined to find "her" again and discover her secrets, he spends the rest of his life looking for "her." However, he never finds "her" again.
I agree with this interpretation with this interpretation, I personally thought, it might be the Aurora borealis, what he is seeing.
The last line "Such den gleißend Himmelsschein" gives a hint in that direction, I think, also he can't find, because it's raining, so the clouds cover the lights, if there are any.

that's my two cents.
