I recently arranged one of my favourite Brahms lieder, "Die Mainacht" (The May Night) for choir. Brahms published this piece in 1868, setting a poem by 18th-century German poet Ludwig Heinrich Christoph Hölty that was already a well-known classic at the time - Schubert had set the same poem to music about 50 years earlier. The English translation is as follows (according to oxfordlieder.co.uk):
"When the silvery moon gleams through the bushes,
And sheds its slumbering light on the grass,
And the nightingale is fluting,
I wander sadly from bush to bush.
Covered by leaves, a pair of doves
Coo to me their ecstasy; but I turn away,
Seek darker shadows,
And the lonely tear flows down.
When, O smiling vision, that shines through my soul
Like the red of dawn, shall I find you here on earth?
And the lonely tear
Quivers more ardently down my cheek."
