Drei Lieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte

by (Heinrich Gustav) Emil Hillmann (1845 - 1902)

1. Es ragt der alte Elborus  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es ragt der alte Elborus
So hoch der Himmel reicht!
Der Frühling blüht zu seinem Fuß,
Sein Haupt ist schneegebleicht.

Ich selbst bin wie der Elborus
In seiner hehren Ruh,
Und blühend zu des Berges Fuß
Der schöne Lenz bist du!

2. Auf dem Teich, dem regungslosen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf dem Teich, dem Regungslosen,
Weilt des Mondes holder Glanz,
Flechtend seine bleichen Rosen
In des Schilfes grünen Kranz.

Hirsche wandeln dort am Hügel,
Blicken [in]1 die Nacht empor;
Manchmal regt sich das Geflügel
Träumerisch im tiefen Rohr.

Weinend muß mein Blick sich senken;
Durch die tiefste Seele geht
Mir ein süßes Deingedenken,
Wie ein stilles Nachtgebet.
