Fang, mein süßes Herzenskindchen by Ernst Frank — Lyrics
Fang, mein süßes Herzenskindchen,
mit dem roten Zuckermündchen,
mit den Äuglein hell und klar,
mit dem weichen Lockenhaar!
Sieh, ich brech dir Knospen ab,
werfe Rosen auf dich herab!
Fang, mein süßes Herzenskindchen,
mit dem roten Zuckermündchen,
sieh, ich brech dir Knospen ab,

About Fang, mein süßes Herzenskindchen
Ernst Frank's Fang, mein süßes Herzenskindchen is a charming secular song for two-part treble voices (SA). The text, in German, expresses a tender, motherly affection for a child. It paints a picture of the child's endearing features – red lips, bright eyes, and soft curly hair – and describes acts of loving care, such as breaking off flower buds and casting roses down. The song evokes a sense of blessing and wishes for the child's happiness and good fortune throughout their life, envisioning a cheerful destiny showered with blessings. This piece captures a sweet, intimate moment between parent and child, making it suitable for lighter concert programs or occasions where tender sentiments are desired.
