by Johann Nepomuk Vogl (1802 - 1866)

Die Karthause
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Einsam raget
Die Karthause,
Finster blickend
Nach dem Thal,
Horch, die Mönche
Singen eben
D'rinne wieder
Den Choral.

Denn ein Bruder
Ist geschieden,
Legte nieder
Seinen Stab,
Und die Ander'n
Tragen singend
Seine Reste
Jetzt in's Grab.

Schlaf in Frieden
Bleicher Bruder,
Hast errungen
Nun die Ruh',
Ach, mich dünket
Jene Finster'n
Sängen trauernd:
"Wärst es Du!"

Confirmed with Neuer Lieder-Frühling von Johann N. Vogl, Wien: J. B. Wallishausser, 1841. Appears in Verschiedene Stimmen, page 113.
