Im schönsten Wiesengrunde — Lyrics
1.
Im schönsten Wiesengrunde
ist meiner Heimat Haus.
Da zog ich manche Stunde
ins Tal hinaus.
Dich mein stilles Tal,
grüß ich tausendmal!
Da zog ich manche Stunde
ins Tal hinaus.
2.
Muss aus dem Tal jetzt scheiden,
wo alles Lust und Klang;
das ist mein herbstes Leiden,
mein letzter Gang.

About Im schönsten Wiesengrunde
A much-loved German folk song, Im schönsten Wiesengrunde is presented here in arrangements for SATB and TTBB voices. The traditional melody carries poignant lyrics that speak of a deep connection to one's homeland, the pain of leaving it, and the wish to be buried there. The text moves from fond reminiscence of a beautiful valley to the sorrow of departure, culminating in a final farewell and a desire for peace within that cherished landscape. This piece offers a profound emotional journey through its evocative words and familiar melody, suitable for mixed or male choirs.
