Vor Edens Tor im Morgenprangen
Language: German (Deutsch)
Alt-Solo Vor Edens Tor im Morgenprangen Stand eine Peri schmerzbefangen: Und wie sie lauscht dem Lebensquelle, Des Flut harmonisch drinnen hallte, Und wie vom Licht ihr Fittich helle, Das durch halboffne Pforten wallte: Weint sie, verbannt aus diesen Au'n, Ihr sündiges Geschlecht zu schaun.
Note: this text is a translation of part of Thomas Moore's Paradise and the Peri.
