Heidenröslein

Sah ein Knab’ ein Röslein stehn,
Röslein auf der Heiden,
War so jung und morgenschön,
Lief er schnell es nah zu sehn,
Sah’s mit vielen Freuden.
Röslein, Röslein, Röslein roth,
Röslein auf der Heiden.

With this song actually nothing more needs to be explained, so well known it is at least in the German speaking countries.

The text is from the great master Johann Wolfgang v. Goethe and the beautiful melody is from Heinrich Werner from 1829.
I set it up for 4 voices already in 1997 and set it to music last year for my Ketron SD4. Here is the organ arrangement for the Melcer Chamber Music Hall organ. You can hear 3 verses with different registration.
