Liederbote
 (Sung text for setting by B. Randhartinger)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Ich hab' es nicht der Nacht geklagt,
dass du nie wirst mein eigen;
die Nacht entschlummert, wenn es tagt,
und Mond und Sternlein schweigen.

Vicht Vöglein klagt' ich meinen Schmerz,
nicht Röslein, frisch und helle;
die Vöglein ziehen südenwärts,
und Röslein welken schnelle.

Ich klagt' es nur dem Lied, dem Klang,
die sagen dir es wieder;
denn ewig lebet der Gesang,
und ewig dauern Lieder.

    Set to music by Benedikt Randhartinger (1802 - 1893), "Liederbote" [ voice and piano ]
