Zwei Duette für Sopran und Baryton mit Pianofortebegleitung , opus 20

by Martin Jacobi (1864 - 1919)

1. Im Walde  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
So gross, so still, so feierlich, 
ragen die Bäume empor, 
nicht Menschenlaut, noch Vogellied, 
dringt an mein Ohr....
Leises Summen hoch oben 
zieht in der klaren Luft, 
lichtgrüner Schein liegt auf dem Moos 
und würziger Nadelduft: 
als wäre aus der lauten Welt 
aller Friede hergezogen   
und flösse sacht durch dieses Thal 
in weichen sanften Wogen, 
und flösse sacht und sonder Schall 
durch ruhelose Herzen, 
so hehr, so ernst, so feierlich, 
fortspülend alle Schmerzen.
