Das muss wohl so sein
 (Sung text for setting by O. Feller)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Sie haben ihn fortgetragen,
versenkt in die Erde hinein;
ich sollte nicht weinen, nicht klagen,
sie sagten, das müsse so sein.

Mir drohte das Herz zu zerbrechen
vor Jammer und Elend und Pein;
ich höre sie immer nur sprechen,
das müsse, das müsse so sein.

Wohl muss die Blüte verderben,
verbleichen des Lenzes Schein;
vereinsamte Liebe muss sterben,
das muss wohl, das muss wohl so sein.

Composition:

    Set to music by Otto Feller (1870 - c1932), "Das muss wohl so sein", published 1895 [ voice and piano ], from Perdita. Lieder-Cyklus für 1 Singstimme mit Pianoforte, no. 3, Berlin, Stern & Ollendorff
