Abend am Meere 
 (Sung text for setting by S. Wagner)
 See original
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Our translations:  ENG FRE
O Meer im Abendstrahl,
An deiner stillen Fluth
Fühl' ich nach langer Qual
Mich wieder fromm und gut.

Das heiße Herz vergißt,
Woran sich's müd' gekämpft,
Und jeder Wehruf ist
Zu Melodie gedämpft.

Kaum daß ein  ...  Weh
Durchgleitet das Gemüth,
Wie durch die stumme See
Ein weißes Segel zieht.
