Dein Herzlein mild, Op. 62, No. 4 by Johannes Brahms — Lyrics
About Dein Herzlein mild, Op. 62, No. 4
This is the fourth part-song from Johannes Brahms's Op. 62. The German text speaks of the gentle heart, a tender image yet to fully blossom. It compares this nascent love to a bud in the forest, refreshed by night dew and soon to unfurl its petals and fill the air with fragrance. The music, for SATB choir, is likely to capture this delicate and intimate theme, evoking the quiet unfolding of affection, much like a flower opening to the morning sun.
