Music: Fanny Mendelssohn (1805–1847) · Words: Franz (Seraphicus) Grillparzer (1791–1872) · lyricist: August Heinrich Hoffmann von Fallersleben (1798–1874)
Schöner und schöner schmückt sich der Plan,
schmeichelnde Lüfte wehen mich an,
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (1:21) 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
Schöner und schöner schmückt sich der Plan,
schmeichelnde Lüfte wehen mich an,
fort aus der Prosa Lasten und Müh' zieh' ich
zum Lande der Poesie; gold'ner die Sonne,
blauer die Luft, grüner die Grüne,
würz'ger der Duft!
Dort an dem Maishalm, schwellend von Saft,
sträubt sich der Aloe störrische Kraft!
Oelbaum, Cypresse, blond du, du braun,
nickt ihr wie zierliche, grüssende Frau'n?
Was glänzt im Laube funkelnd wie Gold?
Ha! Pomeranze, birgst du dich hold?
Trotz'ger Poseidon, warest du dies,
der unten scherzt und murmelt so süss?
Und dies, halb Wiese, halb Aether zu schau'n,
es war des Meeres furchtbares Grau'n?
Hier will ich wohnen, Göttliche du!
Bringst du, Parthenope, Wogen zur Ruh'?
Nun dann versuch' es, Eden der Lust,
eb'ne die Wogen, die Wogen auch dieser
Brust!
