opus 9

by Adelin Marie Clovis (1867 - 1941)

Score: Haags Gemeente Archief

3. Volksliedchen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wenn ich früh in den Garten geh'
In meinem grünen Hut,
Ist mein erster Gedanke,
Was nun mein Liebster tut?

Am Himmel [ist]1 kein Stern,
Den ich dem Freund nicht gönnte.
Mein Herz gäb' ich ihm gern,
Wenn ich's heraus tun könnte.

1 Schumann: "steht"

Heft 3 -- Es fuhr ein Fischer

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es fuhr ein Fischer wohl über den See, 
     ja über den See,
Ein Liedlein thät er singen. 
Im Liede klang so tiefes Weh,
     so tiefes Weh,
als wollt’ sein Herz zerspringen.

Da kehrt zurück ein leerer Kahn, 
     ein leerer Kahn,
vom Wind an’s Ufer getrieben. 
Du falsche Fischerin, sag’ mir an,
     ja sag’ mir an,
Wo ist dein Liebster geblieben
