Drei Gesänge für Männerchor , opus 40

by Carl Attenhofer (1837 - 1914)

1. Vale!  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
[Ich bin der Mönch Waltramus]1,
Dem seliges Leid geschah, 
Ich läute die Abendglocken: 
  Vale carissima! 

Es steht eine Burg am Berge,
Wo ich die Traute sah, 
Mein Herz klingt in die Glocken:
  Vale carissima!

Fern soll mir stehen Minne,
Und stand mir doch so nah!
[Es steht ein Kloster im Tale]2,
  Vale carissima!

3. Am Heimweg  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich wandre heim durchs hohe Feld,
Die Wolken ziehn.
In tiefer Ruhe liegt die Welt -- --
Du bist dahin!

Das Abendläuten ist verhallt
Im Lindengrün,
Der letzte Vogel singt im Wald -- --
Du bist dahin!

Da fühl' ich's leise, wie ich krank
Vor Sehnen bin,
Der Vogel schwieg, die Sonne sank -- --
Du bist dahin!
