New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Neun Stimmungsbilder , opus 3

by Aline Hundt

Translations available for the entire opus: FRE 

1. Abend am Meere  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
O Meer im Abendstrahl,
[An]1 deiner stillen Fluth
Fühl' ich nach langer Qual
Mich wieder fromm und gut.

Das heiße Herz vergißt,
Woran sich's müd' gekämpft,
Und jeder Wehruf ist
Zu Melodie gedämpft.

Kaum daß ein [leises]2 Weh
Durchgleitet das Gemüth,
Wie durch die stumme See
Ein weißes Segel zieht.

4. Mag da draußen Schnee sich türmen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Mag da draußen Schnee sich türmen,
Mag es hageln, mag es stürmen,
Klirrend [an mein Fenster]1 schlagen,
Nimmer will ich mich beklagen!
Denn ich trage in der Brust
Liebchens Bild und Frühlingslust.

Wo sie mir Treue versprochen;
Wo einst ihre Tränen gefallen,
Sind Schlangen hervorgekrochen.
