Die braune Haide starrt mich an,
   Am Himmel bangt die Nacht -
Ach! daß ich nicht vergessen kann,
   Hat mich in Leid gebracht.

Komm, wilder Sturm, zerreiße du,
   Der Wolken schwarzen Flor
Und sing mein wildes Herz in Ruh
   Mit deinem tollsten Chor!

    Set to music by Max Reger (1873 - 1916), "Die braune Heide starrt mich an", 1889-91 [ voice and piano ], from Jugendlieder, no. 1
