New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Blumen von H. Heine : vier Gesänge

Song Cycle by Frank Valentin Van der Stucken (1858 - 1929)

1. Aus meinen Thränen spriessen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Aus meinen Tränen sprießen
Viel blühende Blumen hervor,
Und meine Seufzer werden
Ein Nachtigallenchor.

Und wenn du mich lieb hast, Kindchen,
Schenk' ich dir die Blumen all',
Und vor deinem Fenster soll klingen
Das Lied der Nachtigall.

1. Uit mijne tranen schieten

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Uit mijne tranen schieten
Veel bloeiende bloemen omhoog
En mijne zuchten worden
Een nachtigalenkoor

Als du mij lief hebst, vrouwken,
Schenk ik di al mijn gebloemt,
En voor dijne venster zal schallen
Der nachtigallen lied

2. Die blauen Frühlingsaugen  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Die blauen Frühlingsaugen
Schau'n aus dem Gras [hervor]1;
Das sind das [lieben]2 Veilchen,
Die ich zum Strauß erkor.

  Ich pflücke sie und denke,
Und die Gedanken all,
Die mir im Herzen seufzen,
Singt laut die Nachtigall.

  [Ja,]3 was ich denke, singt sie
[Lautschmetternd]4, daß es schallt;
Mein zärtliches Geheimnis
Weiß schon der ganze Wald.

2. Der lente lieflijk oogen

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Der lente lieflijk oogen 
Zien nit het gras mij aan;
Het zijn de veldviooltjes
Die ik mag plukken gaan.

Ik pluk ze en sta te droomen
En at ik heimlijk droom
Dat zingt het nachtegaaltje
Zoo luid in gindschen boom.

Ja, wat ik droom dat zingt het
Hel schaatrend in het rond;
En't heeft mijn zielsgeheimnis
Aan heel het bosch verkondt.

3. Die schlanke Wasserlilie
 (Sung text)

Language: German (Deutsch) 
  Die schlanke Wasserlilie
Schaut träumend empor aus dem See;
Da grüßt der Mond herunter
Mit lichtem Liebesweh.

  Verschämt senkt sie das Köpfchen
Wieder hinab zu den Welln --
Da sieht sie zu ihren Füßen
Den armen blassen Geselln.

3. De slanke waterlelie

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
De slanke waterlelie
Schouwt droomend omhoog uit het meer,
Daar blikt de droeve mane 
Zoo liefdrijk op haar neêr.

Beschaamd trekt zij haar kopje
Weder terug in den vloed;
Ook daar ontwaart de bloeme
Der mane liefdrijke groet.

4. Am Kreuzweg wird begraben  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: German (Deutsch) 
Am Kreuzweg wird begraben
Wer selber sich brachte um;
[Dort]1 wächst eine blaue Blume,
Die [Armesünderblum']2.

Am Kreuzweg [stand]3 ich und seufzte;
Die Nacht war kalt und stumm.
Im Mondschein bewegte sich langsam
Die [Armesünderblum']2.

4. Ten kruisweg wordt begraven

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) 
Ten kruisweg wordt begraven
Wie't leven zich benam;
Daar groeit eene kleine bloeme,
De blauwe zondaarsbloem.

Ten kruisweg stond ik en zuchtte
De nacht was kus en stom,
In't maanlicht zoo langzaam en treurig
Neeg de arme zondaarsbloem
Der arme zondaars bloem!
