Erlkoning ( the Devil ) by Schubrt ( Austria 1797-1928 ) |
|
Medieval people were afraid of forest as the devil live in...in fact, there are |
many mysterious accident in it..I flash in my head , perhaps it's wisdom of never touch |
by hand of civilization and way of protect to nature and separate with people... Forest is never enterd easy and was thinked fairly live in there at medieval times..

Romanticism composer Schubrt made famous song " The Devil " by story from |
Goethe ( Germany 1749-1832 ) ..I found what spoke in story of song... this song is sang by fast passage of piano accompany and baritone voice.. |

One night one man hurry up pass through in forest with ride on carriage..and his |
little son in his arm.....it was blowing strong wind ..... |
|
father......"oh, my son don't afraid so much I'm beside of you.." |
son......... "father, father, can't you hear devil's voice ? |
he wear crown and golden robe...." |
father......"oh, my son ,that is shadow of mist in night ..please come to me, |
your mom prepear you charming cloth and let's play with toy.." |
son..........."but father, can't you hear as devil wisper me horrible promise ? " |
father..... "dear, don't afraid of..that sound is cold winter wind.. |
‚‚eautiful my son, pretty girl will receive you warmly and |
sing a song and dance with you.." |
son..........."father, can't see daughter of devil ? She is dark hall over there.." |
father......"don't worry..she is loving you..you are beautiful and cute..so.." |
son..........."oh, father, father, devil will carry me away ! He is pulling me ! " |
|
Father was in a hurry and run by horse and arrived to home at last ..but sadly, |
his son breathed his last in father's arm.. |
|
sad story... but interestingly , little child become youth on the way of story.. |
perhaps, this story descrive to fear and mysterious as called devil in forest.. |
