Wolken, Wind und Wälder weit ... - Lieder zur Gitarre (Laute)

Song Cycle by Herbert Thienemann (1884 - 1963)

14. Wolken
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wolken, leise Schiffer, fahren
Über mir und rühren mich
Mit den zarten, wunderbaren
Farbenschleiern wunderlich.

Aus der blauen Luft entquollen,
Eine farbig schöne Welt,
Die mich mit geheimnisvollen
Reizen oft gefangen hält.

Leichte, lichte, klare Schäume,
Alles Irdischen befreit,
Ob ihr schöne Heimwehträume
Der befleckten Erde seid?

29. Nacht
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich habe meine Kerze ausgelöscht;
Zum offenen Fenster strömt die Nacht herein,
Umarmt mich sanft und läßt mich ihren Freund
Und ihren Bruder sein.

Wir beide sind am selben Heimweh krank;
Wir senden ahnungsvolle Träume aus
Und reden flüsternd von der alten Zeit
In unsres Vaters Haus.

47. Auf Wanderung 
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sei nicht traurig, bald ist es Nacht,
Da sehn wir über dem bleichen Land
Den kühlen Mond, wie er heimlich lacht
Und ruhen Hand in Hand.
 
Sei nicht traurig, bald kommt die Zeit,
Da haben wir Ruh. Unsre Kreuzlein stehen
Am hellen Straßenrande zu zweit,
Und es regnet und schneit,
Und die Winde kommen und gehen.
