Hoch im Blau die Wolken stehn - Sommerliche Kantate

Song Cycle by Paul Zoll (1907 - 1978)

7. Reiselied
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sonne, leuchte mir ins Herz hinein,
Wind, verweh mir Sorgen und Beschwerden!
Tiefere Wonne weiß ich nicht auf Erden,
Als im Weiten unterwegs zu sein.

Nach der Ebene nehm ich meinen Lauf,
Sonne soll mich sengen, Meer mich kühlen;
Unsrer Erde Leben mitzufühlen,
Tu ich alle Sinne festlich auf.

Und so soll mir jeder neue Tag
Neue Freunde, neue Brüder weisen,
Bis ich leidlos alle Kräfte preisen,
Aller Sterne Gast und Freund sein mag.

  • by Hermann Hesse (1877 - 1962), "Reiselied", written 1911
