1. Fichtenbaum und Palme  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ein [Fichtenbaum]1 steht einsam
Im Norden auf kahler Höh';
Ihn schläfert; mit weißer Decke
Umhüllen ihn Eis und Schnee.

Er träumt von einer Palme,
Die fern im Morgenland,
Einsam und [schweigend]2 trauert
Auf brennender Felsenwand.

4. An ein Rosenknöspchen (Lied im Rokokostil)  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Rosenknöspchen, schön bist du,
Hauchest milde, süße Düfte
Durch die kühlen Abendlüfte
Mir auf Zephyrs Fittich zu.

Gerne würd' ich, um mit dir
Meinen Sommerhut zu schmücken,
Dich vom vollen Strauche pflücken;
Denn gefällig winkst du mir.

Doch, ich lieb'. Und den, der liebt,
Können Rosen ihn entzücken?
Alles trau'rt in seinen Blicken;
Alles ist mit ihm betrübt.

Aber, wenn dich Daphne pflückt,
Sag, o Röschen, dann der Schönen,
Daß ich dich mit stillen Thränen,
Und mit Seufzern angeblickt!

Text Authorship:

  • by Johannes Martin Miller (1750 - 1814), "An ein Rosenknöspchen"

5. Warnung  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es geht der Tag zur Neige,
Der Licht und Freiheit bot,
O schweige, Vöglein, schweige,
Du singst dich in den Tod;

Die Winde nächtlich rauschen,
Die Blätter zittern bang,
Den Feinden, die drin lauschen,
Verräth dich dein Gesang;

Gluthäugig durch's Gezweige
Der finstre Schuhu droht:
O schweige, Vöglein, schweige,
Du singst dich in den Tod!
