Schubert's setting of words from Goethe's Wilhelm Meister (with my singing translation in English) arranged in the key of E minor for low voice and guitar In some places the guitar part is simplified in comparison to the original piano part in order to improve the flowing quality and to make it possible for one person to accompany herself/himself on the guitar. A version for voice and piano, also in E minor, is also available The sound sample is an electronic preview. The three individual songs (Wer sich der Einsamkeit ergibt, Wer nie sein Brot ass, An die Türen) and also all three together (under the title Gesänge des Harfners (songs of the harpist) ) are available on this site The pdf file contains the score and also the separate parts. Wer sich der Einsamkeit ergibt, Ach! der ist bald allein; Ein jeder lebt, ein jeder liebt Und läßt ihn seiner Pein. Ja! Laßt mich meiner Qual! Und kann ich nur einmal Recht einsam sein, Dann bin ich nicht allein. Es schleicht ein Liebender lauschend sacht, Ob seine Freundin allein? So überschleicht bei Tag und Nacht Mich Einsamen die Pein, Mich Einsamen die Qual. Ach, werd ich erst einmal Einsam in Grabe sein, Da läßt sie mich allein! Who gives himself to solitude Will soon find he's alone each of us lives each of us loves and leaves him to his pain. Yes leave this anguished soul and if I can just once find solitude Then I am not alone. A lover comes and listens soft to see if she is alone and so it is by day and night that pain creeps up on me that anguish comes to me Oh only in the grave will I find solitude Then she will leave me be (English translation (c) 2015 David Warin Solomons)
