Diana Farrell: Laue Sommernacht by Alma Mahler

Here's one last post from last night. Apparently my dress was messed for most of the program. All of the Alma Mahler Songs sound to me like she's just been for a roll in zee hay, so maybe it's appropriate? 😇🫣
"Laue Sommernacht"
🎹 Kate Bode
Laue Sommernacht: am Himmel
Stand kein Stern, im weiten Walde
Suchten wir uns tief im Dunkel,
Und wir fanden uns.
Fanden uns im weiten Walde
In der Nacht, der sternenlosen,
Hielten staunend uns im Arme
In der dunklen Nacht.
War nicht unser ganzes Leben
So ein Tappen, so ein Suchen?
Da in seine Finsternisse
Liebe, fiel Dein Licht.
Balmy summer night: in the heavens
Not a star, in the deep forest
We searched for each other in the dark
And found ourselves.
Found one another in the deep dark wood
In the night, the starless night,
And amazed, we held one another
In that dark night.
Was not our entire life
Simply a groping, a simple searching?
There in the darkness,
O Love, fell your light.
