Jessye Norman Rückert - Lieder Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen (I am lost to the world) - Mahler

Jessye Norman Sings Mahler's Ruckert Lieder. This song was written on 16 August 1901.
Pianist Irwin Gage

Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen

I am lost to the world
with which I used to waste so much time,
It has heard nothing from me for so long
that it may very well believe that I am dead!

It is of no consequence to me
Whether it thinks me dead;
I cannot deny it,
for I really am dead to the world.

I am dead to the world's tumult,
And I rest in a quiet realm!
I live alone in my heaven,
In my love and in my song!
