Very beautiful! Is it Dietrich Fischer-Diskau singing? I made a research and I understood that Bélanger was only the French translator of this poetry. Searching by the first verse (schon naht...) the original poetry seems to have been written by Friedrich Gottlob Wetzel, a German writer 18/19th century. It's not clear to me though.
Thank you, tatiana10, for you comment. No, it is not Fischer-Diskau singing but yours truly (am not as good as the famous baritone). Also, perhaps you are right that Wetzel could have written the text. Let me check. All the best!
Oh! Congratulations, MunichGermany for your interpretation of this beautiful song. You have a truly wonderful voice! I played your video times on end! :-)
I look forward to your confirmation about the writer. If you happen to know the French words by Bélanger (or where I could find them), please let me know as well, ok? Thank you SO much!
hi, there. i am afraid it was indeed Bélanger who wrote the text as indicated on the musical piece i had when i recorded this song. about the french text, i have no clue. no trace on internet either of wetzel having written the lyrics.
Awsome! Thanx for the post!
