Ich habe nichts mehr zu sagen, Ich habe alles gesagt. Nun will ich klingend zum letzten Takt Meine gute Geige zerschlagen. Zerschlagen -- und wandern wieder Ins Land, woher ich kam, Wo ich in Jugendtagen vernahm Den Traum vom Lied der Lieder. Ihn träumen will ich wieder Abseits und ganz allein -- Es muß voll tiefen Friedens sein, Der Traum vom Lied der Lieder.
Fünf Lieder , opus 44
by Rudolph Bergh (1859 - 1924)

5. Die ganze Straße war in Ruh
Language: German (Deutsch)
Die ganze Straße war in Ruh Und nur dein Fenster war noch rot, In deinem Zimmer warst nur du, Du und der Tod. Die Nacht war wolkenschwarz und trieb Verdorrte Blätter träg in Reihn. Sie sprach zu mir: Ich hab dich lieb, Laß mich herein. Dein Licht erlosch; ich war allein. Da ward mein Fenster aufgemacht, Und lange sassen wir zu zwein, Ich und die Nacht.
