Morgen!

", was written by Strauss's contemporary, John Henry Mackay, who was of partly Scottish descent but brought up in Germany.

His last recording of it was 11 June 1947, a live broadcast on radio with Strauss conducting the Orchestra della Svizzera Italiana and soprano Annette Brun.

The harp, playing arpeggios, and the solo violin accompany continuously until the word "stumm", at which point the horns enter.

Tomorrow again will shine the sun And on my sunlit path of earth Unite us again, as it has done, And give our bliss another birth...

The spacious beach under wave-blue skies We'll reach by descending soft and slow, And mutely gaze in each other's eyes, As over us rapture's great hush will flow.

Tomorrow's sun will rise in glory beaming, And in the pathway that my foot shall wander, We'll meet, forget the earth, and lost in dreaming, Let heav'n unite a love that earth no more shall sunder... And towards that shore, its billows softly flowing, Our hands entwined, our footsteps slowly wending, Gaze in each other's eyes in love's soft splendour glowing, Mute with tears of joy and bliss ne'er ending...
