The original words come from 2 verses of Schiller's "Seelig durch die Liebe" [Through love they are made blessed].
The music is based on the oboe solo at the beginning of the slow movement of Brahms' Violin Concerto, arranged by Duncan Saunderson and adapted by David Warin Solomons.
The Schiller poem:
Liebe rauscht der Silberbach,
Liebe lehrt ihn sanfter wallen,
Seele haucht sie in das Ach
Klagenreicher Nachtigallen -
Liebe Liebe lispelt nur
Auf der Laute der Natur
Weisheit mit dem Sonnenblick,
Große Göttin tritt zurück,
Weiche vor der Liebe.
Nie Erobrern, Fürsten nie
Beugtest du ein Sklavenknie,
Beug' es itzt der Liebe.
(singing translation by David W Solomons)
Silver brook resounds with love
Love then teaches it to soften
Breathing soul into the cry
of lamenting nightingales
Love, love whispering only the
Sound of nature.
Wisdom with sun that- glances,
Wisdom great goddess
Go- ye back and yield before love
Never bend your knee to princes
Nor bow as slave to conquerers
Bow now to love.
