Zwei Lieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte , opus 3

by Carl Björset

1. Dein Angesicht, so lieb und schön  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein Angesicht so lieb und schön,
Das hab' ich jüngst im Traum gesehn,
Es ist so mild und engelgleich,
Und doch so bleich, so [schmerzenbleich]1.

Und nur die Lippen, die sind rot;
Bald aber küßt sie bleich der Tod.
Erlöschen wird das Himmelslicht,
Das aus den frommen Augen bricht.
