Johannis war gekommen
Language:
German
Tenor-Solo:
Johannis war gekommen,
Der Erde Hochzeitstag,
Wo sie als Braut am Herzen
Des lieben Frühlings lag.
Die stille Nacht umschleiert
Den Schlummer der Natur.
Das blasse Licht des Mondes
Durchwandelt Hain und Flur.
Die kleinen Blättchen schwirren
Kaum hörbar in dem Baum,
Um Schilf und Wasserblumen
Schwebt Schlaf und Abendtraum.
Alt-Solo:
Was ist auf jener Wiese
Für zauberischer Sang,
Und unterm Frühlingsgrase
Für wunderlicher Klang?
Note: refers to St. John's day, which is the 24th of June
