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

Da liegt im Schatten der Linden

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Da liegt im Schatten der Linden
Einsam das Gotteshaus;
Glockenklang mit den Winden
Zittert in's Land hinaus.

Es sprudeln und plätschern die Bronnen
Wohl um die alte Abtei;
Im Klostergarten die Nonnen
Wandeln zwei um zwei.

Die eine, die mich betrachtet.
Senkt tiefer den Schleier auf's Kleid; . .
Doch tiefer noch umnachtet
Die Seele mir Reu und Leid.
