New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Drei Gedichte , opus 5

by Philipp Hartung

1. Hier ist es, wo ich als Kind gestreift  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Hier ist es, wo ich als Kind gestreift
Und die Beere gepflückt, die am Abhang reift;
Still war's, wie jetzt im Laube;
Fernher nur hört' ich durch Rankengeflecht
Die Schläge der Axt und den pickenden Specht
Und das Girren der wilden Taube.

O Träume, schön wie Märchen der Feen,
Umschwebten mich dort, wenn beim Abendwehn
Ich ruht' am Felsenhange;
Und vor mir lag, wie im Traum ich's sah,
Voll goldener Schlösser das Leben da -
So lange das her, so lange!

Aus der Welt da draußen nun kehr' ich zurück;
Wie Märchen alles dahin: das Glück
Und Hoffen und Lieb' und Glaube!
Im Walde lieg' ich, wie einst ich lag,
Und höre von ferne der Aexte Schlag
Und das Girren der wilden Taube.

2. Dein Bildniss wunderselig  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Dein Bildnis wunderselig
Hab ich im Herzensgrund,
Das sieht so [frisch]1 und fröhlich
Mich an zu jeder Stund'.

Mein Herz still in sich singet
Ein altes schönes Lied,
Das [in die Luft sich schwinget]2
Und [zu dir eilig]3 zieht.
