Liebst du um Schönheit - Clara Schumann

Me singing Clara Schumann's "Liebst du um Schönheit" for my senior recital at UT-Brownsville in Nov. 2006.

Liebst du um Schönheit, O nicht mich liebe!
Liebe die Sonne, Sie trägt ein goldnes Haar!
Liebst du um Jugend, O nicht mich liebe!
Liebe den Frühling, Der jung ist jedes Jahr!
Liebst du um Schätze, O nicht mich liebe.
Liebe die Meerfrau, Sie hat viel Perlen klar.
Liebst du um Liebe, O ja, mich liebe!
Liebe mich immer, Dich lieb ich immerdar.

If you love for beauty, Oh, do not love me!
Love the sun, She has golden hair!
If you love for youth, Oh, do not love me!
Love the spring; It is young every year!
If you love for treasure, Oh, do not love me!
Love the mermaid; She has many clear pearls!
If you love for love, Oh yes, do love me!
Love me always, Ill love you evermore!

May I get your name and the name of your accompanist? I am writing a paper for my voice lessons class and need to list these items in it!

It is wonderful to hear so powerful a voice so lightly controlled. Sometimes understatement says so much more than a full on performance could. I had never realised what a lovely setting this is.
