New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

V lese
Language: Czech (Čeština) 
V mech se polož, zamhuř oči
k snění jen ne k spánku v lese,
naslouchej, jak korunami
temný ohlas žalmů třese.

Smutně nad tebou se vznáší,
jako opuštěné ptáče,
smutně lká, tak smutně, smutně,
až ti srdce pozapláče.

Žalná píseň v českých lesích
stísněných jak z ňader kvílí,
jak by se jí od našého
lidu byly naučily.
