Sechs Lieder

Song Cycle by Leo Kempner

2. Es schauen die Blumen alle  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Es schauen die Blumen alle
Zur leuchtenden Sonne hinauf;
Es nehmen die Ströme alle
Zum leuchtenden Meere den Lauf.

Es flattern die Lieder alle
Zu meinem leuchtenden Lieb -
Nehmt mit meine Tränen und Seufzer,
Ihr Lieder, wehmütig und trüb!

4. Die schönen Augen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Die schönen Augen der Frühlingsnacht,
[Sie schauen]1 so tröstend [nieder]2:
Hat dich die Liebe so kleinlich gemacht,
Die Liebe, sie hebt dich wieder.

  Auf grüner Linde sitzt und singt
Die süße Philomele;
Wie mir das Lied zur Seele dringt,
So dehnt sich wieder die Seele.
