Sonntag
Music: Robert Franz (1815–1892) · Words: Joseph Karl Benedikt, Freiherr von Eichendorff (1788–1857)
Die Nacht war kaum verblühet, nur eine Lerche
sang die stille Luft entlang.
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (2:04) 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
Die Nacht war kaum verblühet, nur eine Lerche
sang die stille Luft entlang.
Wen grüsst sie schon so frühe? Und draussen in
dem Garten die Bäume über's Haus sah'n weit
in's Land hinaus,
als ob sie wen erwarten. In festlichen
Gewanden wie eine Kinderschaar,
Tauperlen in dem Haar, die Blumen alle
standen. Ich dacht:
ihr kleinen Bräute, was schmückt ihr euch so
sehr?
Da blickt' die eine her: ”Still,
still, s'ist Sonntag heute. Schon klingen
Morgenglocken, der liebe Gott nun bald geht
durch den heil'gen Wald.”
Da kniet' ich froh erschrocken.
