Zomernacht (Bastiaanse, set by H. Mulder) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


De blanke mane
Licht overal;
De donk're lanen
Staan langs den wal;

Boomtoppen drinken
Het zilv'ren licht,
Beneden zinken
Schaduwen dicht.

Maar midden in de
Betoovering,
Waar beuk en linde
Te droome' aanving

Dalen drie zware
Klokslagen neer;
De kimmen klaren...
De dag keert weer...
