Du holde Kunst, in wieviel grauen Stunden,
Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzünden,
Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt!
(Oh lovely Art, in how many grey hours,
When life's fierce orbit ensnared me,
Have you kindled my heart to warm love,
Carried me away into a better world!)
Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf' entflossen,
Ein süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!
(How often has a sigh escaping from your harp,
A sweet, sacred chord of yours
Opened up for me the heaven of better times,
Oh lovely Art, for that I thank you!)
Franz Schubert가 20세때인 1817년에 작곡된 이곡은 슈베르트의
친구이자 후원자인 F.쇼버의 詩에 곡을 붙인 것으로서, 극히 단순하
면서도 깊은 감명을 주는 아름답고 순박한 감정이 잘 표현된 뛰어난
가곡이다.
