Idylle
 (Sung text for setting by H. Gál)
 Matches base text
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Der Marktplatz ruht, der Brunnen in der Mitte
rauscht in der Sommernacht... wie reifes Korn;
von weitem hallen würdeschwere Schritte,
und melancholisch ruft Wächterhorn.
Der Nachtwind weht mit den Kastanienfächern
in tiefen Schlaf die Häuser, längst verwohnt
und zwischen wunderlichen Giebeldächern
ein Stückchen Himmel und der Sichelmond.

Composition:

    Set to music by Hans Gál (1890 - 1987), "Idylle", op. 8 (Zwei Lieder) no. 1 (1914), published 1927, first performed 1920 [ four-part men's chorus a cappella ], Universal Edition, Vienna
