Richard Strauss - Heimliche Aufforderung

 
0
Copied!
Auf, hebe die funkelnde Schale empor zum Mund
Und trinke beim Freudenmahle dein Herz gesund
Und wenn du sie hebst, so winke mir heimlich zu
Dann lächle ich und dann trinke ich still wie du...

Und still gleich mir betrachte um uns das Heer
Der trunknen Zecher -- verachte sie nicht zu sehr
Nein, hebe die blinkende Schale, gefüllt mit Wein
Und laß beim lärmenden Mahle sie glücklich sein

Doch hast du das Mahl genossen, den Durst gestillt
Dann verlasse der lauten Genossen festfreudiges Bild
Und wandle hinaus in den Garten zum Rosenstrauch
Dort will ich dich dann erwarten nach altem Brauch

Und will an die Brust dir sinken, eh du's gehofft
Und deine Küsse trinken, wie ehmals oft
Und flechten in deine Haare der Rose Pracht
O komme, du wunderbare, ersehnte Nacht!

Biography

One of the great composers of the Post-Romantic Era, Richard Strauss (1864-1949) is known for his tone poems such as Also Sprach Zarathustra, Till Eulenspiegel’s Merry Pranks, and Death and Transfiguration, as well as operas such as Der Rosenkavalier and Salome. Initially considered a retrograde composer from the dark ages of tonality, he was reappraised as a composer who stretched the tonal system to uncharted limits and presaged the musical developments of the 20th century.

Known for treating friends and acquaintances badly, Strauss was once described by the conductor Hans Knappertsbusch:

I knew him very well. I played cards with him every week for 40 years, and he was a pig.
