Der Meister von Avis

Oratorio by Carl Loewe (1796 - 1869)

Des Meisters Phönix‑Sang
 (Sung text for setting by C. Loewe)
 Matches base text

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Euern Helfer, euern Sieger
suchet droben, nicht in mir;
ich bin ein gefangner Krieger,
bin ein Sklave nur, wie ihr.

Schein' ich anders, wenig Stunden,
so verflogen Schein und Schall,
und mein Ort ist mir gefunden,
ihr zieht heim nach Portugal.

Wenn ich Christi Schmach erst trage,
wenn mein Tod euch freigewann,
einst am Auferstehungstage
Phönix Christi bin ich dann.

Composition:

    Set to music by Carl Loewe (1796 - 1869), "Des Meisters Phönix-Sang", 1843, from oratorio Der Meister von Avis,
