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! Du holde Kunst, ich danke dir! ===== Belovèd art, in dark times when I wander When all life's wild confusion gathers round You light my heart with love and warmth so tender And rouse me with your wondrous heav'nly sound And rouse me with your heav'nly sound And from your harp a chord of sweetness leads me A holy sigh from greatest heaven above and with the hope of better times feeds me Belovèd art, 'tis you, 'tis you I love Belovèd art, 'tis you I love (singing translation by David Warin Solomons (c) 2015).
