Blicke mir nicht in die Lieder - Mahler Astrid Nordstad

Blicke mir nicht in die Lieder
Rückert-Lieder by Mahler
Astrid Nordstad with Ádám Fischer conducting the Danish Chamber Orchestra 2019
Translation:
Do not look into my songs!
I lower my gaze,
As if caught in the act.
I dare not even trust myself
To watch them growing.
Your curiosity is treason.
Bees, when they build cells,
Let no one watch either,
And do not even watch themselves.
When the rich honeycombs
Have been brought to daylight,
You shall be the first to taste!
