about

First song from the cicle "Walpurgis night"

lyrics

In die Traum - und Zaubersphäre
Sind wir, scheint es, eingegangen.
Führ uns gut und mach dir Ehre
Daß wir vorwärts bald gelangen
In den weiten, öden Räumen!
Seh die Bäume hinter Bäumen,
Wie sie schnell vorüberrücken,
Und die Klippen, die sich bücken,
Und die langen Felsennasen,
Wie sie schnarchen, wie sie blasen!

Durch die Steine, durch den Rasen
Eilet Bach und Bächlein nieder.
Hör ich Rauschen? hör ich Lieder?
Hör ich holde Liebesklage,
Stimmen jener Himmelstage?
Was wir hoffen, was wir lieben!
Und das Echo, wie die Sage
Alter Zeiten, hallet wider.
