Arno-Holz-Lieder

Song Cycle by Jacques G. Goosen (b. 1952)

1. In welken Kronen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
In welken Kronen wiegt sich ... der Herbst. Purpurne Blätter schweben, schwanken ... schaukeln, trägkreiseln, fallen. Nebel webt schon, Krähen krächzen. Stare sammeln sich ... Drosseln ... ziehen ... Wildgänse wandern. Noch einmal, kühlblass, müde scheint die ... Sonne. Am stillen See, auf der kleinen Brücke, über das alte, krumme, morschmoosige Balkengeländer gelehnt, unter den dunklen, riesigen, schlangenbunt sich verästelnden Platanen, versunken, einsam ... lange, stehe ich, starre ... und ... träume in ein gespiegeltes, seltsam fantastisches, wie unirdisches, märchenhaftes, zauberhaftes Paradies!

2. In himmelblauer Ferne  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
  In himmelblauer Ferne,
Da liegt und lacht ein Paradies,
Da singen die Sirenen,
Da trocknen alle Thränen,
Da wohnt das Glück.

  In himmelblauer Ferne ....
