Drei Lieder für 1 Singstimme mit Pianofortebegleitung

Song Cycle by Richard Sternfeld (1858 - 1926)

1. Schilflied  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Auf geheimem Waldespfade
Schleich' ich gern im Abendschein
An das öde Schilfgestade,
Mädchen, und gedenke dein!

Wenn sich dann der Busch verdüstert,
Rauscht das Rohr geheimnisvoll,
Und es klaget und es flüstert,
Daß ich weinen, weinen soll.

Und ich mein', ich höre wehen
Leise deiner Stimme Klang,
Und im Weiher untergehen
Deinen lieblichen Gesang.

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Die Rose, die Lilie, die Taube, die Sonne,
Die liebt' ich einst alle in Liebeswonne.

Ist Rose und Lilie und Taube und Sonne.3

3. Wie ist doch die Erde so schön  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Wie ist doch die Erde [so schön, so schön]1!
Das wissen die Vögelein:
Sie heben ihr leicht' Gefieder,
Und [singen so fröhliche]2 Lieder
In den blauen Himmel hinein.

Wie ist doch die Erde [so schön, so schön]1!
Das wissen die Flüss' und [die Seen]3:
Sie [malen]4 im klaren Spiegel
Die Gärten [und Städt' und]5 Hügel,
Und die [Wolken]6, die drüber [geh'n]7!

[Und Sänger und Maler wissen es,]8
Und [Kinder und and're]9 Leut'!
Und [wer's]10 nicht malt, der singt es,
Und [wer's]10 nicht singt, dem klingt es
[In dem Herzen vor]11 lauter Freud'!
