Lyrics:
An die Erwählte

Hand in Hand! und Lipp' auf Lippe!

Liebes Mädchen, bleibe treu!

Lebe wohl! und manche Klippe

Fährt dein Liebster noch vorbei.

Aber wenn er einst den Hafen

Nach dem Sturme, wieder grüßt,

Mögen ihn die Götter strafen,

Wenn er ohne dich genießt.



Frisch gewagt ist schon gewonnen,

Halb ist schon mein Werk vollbracht;

Sterne leuchten mir wie Sonnen,

Nur dem Feigen ist es Nacht.

Wär' ich müßig dir zur Seite,

Drückte noch der Kummer mich;

Doch in aller dieser Weite

Wirk' ich rasch und nur für dich.



Schon ist mir das Tal gefunden,

Wo wir einst zusammen geh'n

Und den Strom in Abendstunden

Sanft hinuntergleiten seh'n.

Diese Pappeln auf den Wiesen,

Diese Buchen in dem Hain!

Ach, und hinter allen diesen

Wird doch auch ein Hüttchen sein.

Nicely done, I like the acoustic style on the music and vocals are good too. The accordion adds a nice touch (I can hear my guitar too, you really did a great job with it).

Kudos

I'm reminded of Test Dept. or maybe Boyd Rice with this one. A folk song with Goethe for lyrics is really a surprise! I'm really digging the accordion melody here, especially with the guitar.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.

This started as a bandlab beat called Gridlock. Just mentioning in case someone wants to go get a clean version of the main backing track.
