Robert Schumann - Myrthen, Op. 25: I. Widmung (Arr. Leopold Auer)

With Tanner Jorden, piano
This piece was originally written as a German artsong. English lyrics:
You my soul, you my heart,
You my rapture, O you my pain,
You my world in which I live,
My heaven you, to which I aspire,
O you my grave, into which
My grief forever I’ve consigned!
You are repose, you are peace,
You are bestowed on me from heaven.
Your love for me gives me my worth,
Your eyes transfigure me in mine,
You raise me lovingly above myself,
My guardian angel, my better self!
