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

by Johann Ludwig Uhland (1787 - 1862)

Я умер от счастья
Language: Russian (Русский)  after the German (Deutsch) 
Я умер от счастья любви разделенной,
И гробом мне были объятия милой,
И был воскрешен я её поцелуем,
И небо узрёл я в очах её дивных.

И, к жизни призванный, в восторге безмолвном
Любуюсь я дивной ее красотою.
И дева с улыбкой кольцо мне вручает
И шепчет так сладко: твоя я навеки! 

И радостно божий весь храм осветился,
И тихо подвел к алтарю я невесту.
И в теплой молитве слились наши души,
И с нею смешали мы слезы блаженства!
