Abendlied der Fürstin
Language:
German
Der Abend rötet nun das Tal,
Mild schimmert Hesperus.
Die Buchen stehen still zumal,
Und leiser rauscht der Fluß.
Die Wolken segeln goldbesäumt
Am klaren Firmament;
Das Herz, es schwelgt, das Herz, es träumt,
Von Erdenqual getrennt.
Am grünem Hügel hingestreckt,
Schlaft wohl der Jäger ein -
Doch plötzlich ihn der Donner weckt,
Und Blitze zischen drein.
Wo bist du, heilig Abendrot,
Wo, sanfter Hesperus?
So wandelt denn in Schmerz und Not
Sich jeglicher Genuß.
Input by Richard Morris
