In den Bergen ist es schön by Bernhard Mettenleiter — Lyrics
1. In den Bergen ist es schön,
herrlich auf den freien Höh'n,
wo der Adler über Wolken schwebt
und die Gems den Felsenhang belebt;
herrlich schön, herrlich schön
sind, o Allgäu, deine Höh’n!
2. Dort im milden Sonnenschein
weh’n die Lüfte frisch und rein;
aus den Klüften glänzt herab der Schnee,
und im Grunde ruht der blaue See;
herrlich schön ...
3. Aus dem Steingerölle hell
springt in’s Tal hinab der Quell;

About In den Bergen ist es schön
Bernhard Mettenleiter's In den Bergen ist es schön is a four-part song for TTBB male voices. The German text celebrates the beauty of the mountains, its fresh air, and its natural wonders. It paints a vivid picture of soaring eagles, sure-footed chamois, and snowy peaks, contrasting with the tranquil blue lake below. The song also evokes the sound of rushing streams, the vibrant colours of alpine flowers, and the cheerful calls of herdsmen echoing through the valleys. It is a lively and evocative portrayal of the alpine landscape.
