opus 24

by

Translations available for the entire opus: CAT FRE 

1. Reiselied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wasser stürzt, uns zu verschlingen,
Rollt der Fels, uns zu erschlagen,
Kommen schon auf starken Schwingen
Vögel her, uns fortzutragen.

Aber unten liegt ein [Land]1,
[Früchte spiegelnd]2 ohne Ende
In den alterslosen [Seen]3.

Marmorstirn und Brunnenrand
Steigt aus blumigem Gelände,
Und die leichten Winde wehn.
