Zwei Lieder

Song Cycle by Leopold Spinner (1906 - 1980)

1.   [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Strom floss, der Mond vergoss,

Und ich vergass mich selbst
Als ich so sass beim Weine.
Die Vögel waren weit,
Das Leid war weit,
Und Menschen gab es keine.

Lotosblatt und Frauenkleid,
Lotosblüte, Mädchenblüte,

Mensch und Blume von euch beiden,
Weil ihr ineinander loht:
Lotosblatt und Frauenkleid,
Lotosblüte, Mädchenblüte ...
