Antonín Dvořák's Biblícké Písně (Biblical Songs) Op. 99 (1884). Book 1 containing Songs 1-5. While Dvorak later orchestrated the work, this the complete original piano-and-voice version.
While the massacre of the original music to fit the German and English is appalling, it does contain the original Czech, and the original music for the Czech. The German and English should probably be considered only as a translation.
This is the first five songs (out of ten), the other five are printed in a second volume I have not yet tracked down.
I haven't been able to find Book 2, unfortunately.

For å kunne lagres på Commons må verket både være offentlig eiendom i USA og i opphavslandet. Vernetiden kan i noen tilfeller være lengre enn 80 år i USA, så i tillegg til dette merket trengs det et eget merke som forklarer hvorfor verket er offentlig eiendom (public domain) i USA. Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
