Die Lotosblume - Schumann

This is Die Lotosblume by Schumann, with poetry by Heine.
Die Lotosblume änstigt sich vor der Sonne Pracht,
Und mit gesenktem Haupte erwartet sie träumend die Nacht.
Der Mond, der ist sie Buhle, er weckt sie mit seinem Licht,
Und ihm entschleiert sie freundlich ihr frommes Blumen gesicht.
Sie blüht und glüht and leuchtet, und starret stumm in die Höh’.
Sie dufftet und weinet und zittert, vor Liebe und Liebesweh.
The lotus flower fears the Sun’s rays
And with hanging head, waits dreaming for night.
The moon, he is her lover, he wakes her with his light,
And for him she unveils friendly her innocent flower face.
She blooms and glows and gleams and gazes silently upwards.
She perfumes and weeps and trembles, for Love and Love’s pain.

I stumbled across this Video; let me give my 5cts from the point of view of a German native speaker.
Actually the pronounciation of the German language is not far from being perfect. It's just some few vowels that are a bit off, but still understandable. The vast majority of the text, however, is given accurately and "crystal clear". There are enough German singers who do worse on that.
I personally am generally not a friend of too much vibrato, here it is well done: not too much, just enough to express what has to be expressed aside the words (of course, the text contains lots of chiffres that were commonly known the days Heine wrote this poem but are not that obvious these days; a bit of vibrato here helps expressing what Heine had in mind, but could not say).
Overall, the performance is almost perfect in my humble opinion.
