An die Nachtigall, Op. 98, No. 1
(To the Nightingale)

"... He lay and slept over my heart,
my good guardian angel sang him to sleep,

and I can be merry and playful,
every flower and leaf can make me happy.

Nightingale, ah!
Nightingale, ah!
sing to me
wake not my lover!"

A song to the nightingale by Franz Schubert. This is a live performance of the song in an Easter Concert at the Franziskushof by Dorothea Fayne (Mezzo-Soprano), accompanied by Siegfried Andreae (Guitar). April 2007.
