Die Möwe
 (Sung text for setting by J. Pache)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Am öden Dünenstrand über dem brausenden Meer
fliegt eine weisse Möve einsam und klagend einher.
Das ist eine arme Seele, die einsam in irrender Flucht
das Meer und Himmel und Erde nach einer Seele durchsucht;
ich höre die klagenden Rufe, starrend auf's dunkle Meer,
ach, Möve, weisse Möve, mein Herz gleicht dir so sehr!

Composition:

    Set to music by Joseph Pache , "Die Möwe", published 1889 [ low voice and piano ], from Drei Lieder, no. 3, Berlin, Plothow
