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

Grauer Herbsttag; tiefe Stille
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Grauer Herbsttag; tiefe Stille --
Weite, dichte Nebelhülle
Lagert ringsumher.
Überall wohnt düst'res Schweigen
Und in blätterlosen Zweigen
Rauscht der Wind nicht mehr! --

Grauer Herbsttag; tiefe Stille --
Meiner Seele Sehnsuchtsfülle
Lastet stumm und schwer. --
Ruhe jetzt! Nach Lust und Kummer
Naht dir nun der Winterschlummer -
Sträube dich nicht mehr! -- 

Grauer Herbsttag; tiefe Stille --
Duft'ger Träume Zauberhülle 
Webe um dich her! 
Laß die Welt in Stürmen tosen;
Schwimme du im gränzenlosen.
Dunklen Schlummer-Meer. --
