Franz Schubert (1797-1828)
Sehnsucht (Lied der Mignon) D 481

This song sung by Arleen Auger is pure heavenly delight in three minutes package. Enjoy!

Text:
Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt
Weiß, was ich leide!
Allein und abgetrennt
Von aller Freude,
Seh ich Firmament
Nach jener Seite.

Ach! der mich liebt und kennt,
Ist in der Weite.
Es schwindelt mir, es brennt
Mein Eingeweide.
Nur wer die Sehnsucht kennt
Weiß, was ich leide!

  • Enchanting! Beauty of voice and face!

  • 00:00-00:12 - Harvey Dent theme from Batman Begins/The Dark Knight.

    Tons of similarity between Hans Zimmer's music and Franz Schubert's.

  • ignorant me has only just discovered Arleen Auger's beautiful singing :)

  • O Wonne! Sheer depth and pure sensuality without a hint of drama. A voice like liquid velvet. I miss her so much. Talk about Sehnsucht.

  • Beautiful words and music - beautiful voice and lady. What more can you ask!
