Edison Goldguss Walze 12239 1905 Composer is Gustav Pressel Lyrics in German (Deutsch) Hier hab' ich so manches liebes Mal Mit meiner Laute gesessen, Hinunterblickend in's weite Thal, Mein selbst und der Welt vergessen. Und um mich klang es so froh und hehr Und über mir tagt' es so helle Und unten brauste das ferne Wehr Und der Weser blitzende Welle. Wie liebende Töne aus rothem Mund, So flüstert' es rings durch die Bäume, Und aus des Thales blühendem Grund Begrüßten mich nickende Träume. Da sitz' ich nun wieder und spähe umher Und horche hinauf und hernieder; Die holden Weisen klingen nicht mehr, Die Träume kommen nicht wieder: Die süßen Gestalten sind all zerstreut, Der Himmel beengt und trübe, -- Fahr' wohl, fahr' wohl, du selige Zeit, Fahr' wohl, du närrische Liebe! ______________ Many a happy time I sat here With my lute, Gazing down into the wide valley, Forgetting myself and the world. And around me, so joyfully and loftily, it resounded And above me it dawned so brightly And below roared the distant dam And the sparkling wave of the Weser River. Like loving sounds uttered by red lips, Thus it whispered through the trees round about, And from the valley’s blossoming depths Nodding dreams greeted me. There I sit and gaze around And harken up and down; The lovely melodies no longer sound, The dreams do not return: The sweet forms are all dispersed, The sky is lowering and gloomy, -- Farewell, farewell, you blissful time, Farewell, you foolish love!
