You have risen from sleep
Schumann, Robert
You have risen from sleep
and are wandering through the meadow.
There lies over all the land
Heaven's wondrous blue.
As long as, free from cares,
you've been slumbering without pain,
Heaven has, up until the morning,
shed many tears.
In silent nights,
many weep from pain,
and in the morning you assume
their hearts are always light.
