Wiegenlied
Music: F. Ries (1784–1838) · Words: no source names who wrote them
Der Abend schaut durch’s Fensterlein und
lauscht ob Alles ruht?
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (2:23) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Der Abend schaut durch’s Fensterlein und
lauscht ob Alles ruht?
Lieb’ Kindchen schlumm’re nun auch ein,
liegst ja in Gottes Hut. Schlaf ein,
schlaf ein, schlaf ein, liegst ja in Gottes
Hut.
Die Quellen murmeln leis’ im Reid,
Thau fällt auf Wies’ und Hain.
Verstummt ist schon der Vöglein Lied,
lieb Kindchen shlaf nun ein.
Die Haideglöckchen läuten sacht,
gestreift vom Mondenschein,
Und näher, näher kommt die Nacht,
lieb’ Kindchen, schlaf nun ein. Schlaf ein,
schlaf ein, schlaf ein, lieb’ Kindchen,
schlaf nun ein.
Schlaf ein,
schlaf ein!
