Return to the original list

1. Die Heimkehr  [sung text not yet checked]
by Friedrich Hieronymus Truhn (1811 - 1886), "Die Heimkehr", op. 67 (Elegische Poesieen), Heft 2 no. 5 [ soprano or tenor with piano ]
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Am fernen Horizonte
Erscheint, wie ein Nebelbild,
Die Stadt mit ihren Thürmen,
In Abenddämmrung gehüllt.

Ein feuchter Windzug kräuselt
Die graue Wasserbahn;
Mit traurigem Tacte rudert
Der Schiffer in meinem Kahn.

Die Sonne hebt sich noch einmal
Leuchtend vom Boden empor,
Und zeigt mir jene Stelle,
Wo ich das Liebste verlor.

Language: Irish (Gaelic) 
Ar fhíor na spéire i gcéin
á nocht' mar radharc i gceo
an chathair 's a cuid túr ard
is an clapsholas ann mar dhreo

Corraíonn an leoithne úr-thais
an cúrsa uisce léith;
le rithimí gruama rámhaíonn
an bádóir mé 'dtí an ché

An ghrian ag éirí arís di
ag soilsiú aníos athuair
is léiríonn domsa an áit úd
ar imigh mo ghrá bán uaim.
