Canon, 'Im Arm der Liebe', WoO 159 (mp3)

WoO 159, Canon 'Im Arm der Liebe', (1793/94).

Im Arm der Liebe ruht sich's wohl,
Im Schoss der Erde ruht sich's wohl,
Wo es auch sei, das ist der Mueden einerlei.

In the arm of love one rests well,
In the bowels of the earth one rests well,
Wherever it may be, for the tired it is all the same.

Not your average popsong text, but nevertheless it is soooo true, so profoundly true...!

Here you have a hanky !

WoO: 159
