| Notes | "Cidli" is a nickname that the poet used to refer to his wife, Margarethe Moller, in his poetry. The two versions of this song are almost identical, with the main differences being the appogiatura on "Schlumm're" and the added Fb in the right hand of the second version's last system. (Search) |
