New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

Vente, niña, conmigo al mar,
Que en la playa tengo un bajel.
Bogaremos a dos en él,
Que allí sólo se sabe amar.
Ay, rubita, si tú supieras!
Dame, dame tu amar.

Habanera
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Spanish (Español) 
Komm, Mädchen, mit mir zum Meer,
Weil ich am Strand ein Boot habe.
Wir beide werden darin rudern,
Weil man nur dort richtig lieben kann.
Ach, schöne Blonde, wenn du wüsstest!
Gib mir, gib mir deine Liebe.
