So gehen die Tage

(Sung text for setting by C. Sinding)

See original

Language: German (Deutsch)

Our translations: ENG FIN

So gehen die Tage zu Ende 
ohne Klang und Sang.
Ein Hauch von vergilbenden Rosen 
weht müde den Weg entlang.

Lautlos fallen die Blätter 
von fröstelnden Bäumen herab 
dichter und immer dichter 
auf des Sommers Grab.

Im Mondschein stehen die Zweige 
starr wie in Zaubers Bann.
Aus blassen leeren Augen
sieht die Nacht dich an.

Composition:

Christian Sinding
