Schumann and September, a song
Lied by Robert Schumann, Poem by Friedrich von Schiller
You meadows, farewell,
you sunny pastures!
the herdsman must leave
the summer is past.
We go to the mountain, we will come back again
when the cuckoo calls, when the songs awaken,
when the earth adorns itself anew with flowers,
when the springs flow in lovely May, in lovely…
You meadows, farewell,
you sunny pastures!
The herdsman must leave,
for summer is past.
