Sybille
 (Sung text for setting by F. Döhl)
 Matches original text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Sturm
          Aber sie schmähn
            Schütteln gewaltig den Baum doch auch die thörigen Kinder
                werfen mit Steinen
              Aber
   Die Äste beugt.
      Und der Rabe singt.
 So wandert das Wetter Gottes über

      Aber du heilger Gesang

 Und suchst armer Schiffer den gewohnten

      Zu den Sternen siehe.
