Lieder für eine Singstimme und Klavier

by Felix Rosenthal (1867 - 1936)

1. Wenn die Sterne scheinen
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sieh, nun ist es dunkel 'worden,
Alles schläft in weiter Welt,
Nur die Sterne wallen leise
Ihren Weg am Himmelszelt.

Und der leuchtendste von allen,
Jener dort im weißen Kleid,
Schaut mit seinen heil'gen Augen
Still in uns're Einsamkeit.

Sanfter nun die Herzen schlagen,
Auf der Lippe schläft das Wort,
Und die Seelen wandern leise,
Hand in Hand zum Himmel fort.

Text Authorship:

  • by Anna (Nuhn) Ritter (1865 - 1921), "Wenn die Sterne scheinen", appears in Gedichte, in 1. Das Ringlein sprang entzwei, no. 9

2. Du Blume im Thau
 (Sung text)

Language: English 
Du Blume im Thau,
Du Blume in Thau!
Flüstre vom Traum mir, dem deinen.
Ziehet durch ihn die gleiche Luft,
Die gleiche seltsame Elfenlandsluft
Wie durch meinen?
Und flüstert, seufzt und klaget drin nicht
Aus sterbendem Duft, aus schlummerndem Licht,
Aus erwachendem Klang und aus spriessendem Sang:
In Sehnsucht,
In Sehnsucht leb' ich.

3. Ich bin dein
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich bin dein, du bist mein,
Des sollst du ganz gewisse sein.
Du bist verschlossen in meinem Herzen,
Verloren ist das Schlüsselein - 
Drum mußt du immer drinne sein
