Sehr schön gesungen und artikuliert.

Near perfect blending of voices. Beautiful. And my outright favourite Elgar song.

Herzlichen DANK

Vielen Dank, Nataliya und Ensemble - sehr schön, erlesen, zärtlich, und perfecte Aussprache...
One tiny correction: in "daringly", the "a" is pronounced "eh" (as in "air" or zärtlich), not "ah" (as in "far" or Vater).
How lovely to hear this from the Tyrol. ~ Liebe Grüße, Michael

Text: Caroline Alice Elgar
O happy eyes, for you will see
My love, my lady pass today;
What I may not, that may you say
And ask for answer daringly.
O happy eyes.
O happy flow'rs that touch her dress,
That touch her dress and take her smile,
O whisper to her all the while
Some words of love in idleness.
O happy flowers.
O happy airs that touch her cheek,
And lightly kiss and float away,
So carelessly as if in play,
Why take ye all the joy I seek?
O happy eyes my love to see,
Alas! alas! I may not greet
With word or touch my lady sweet;
More happy eyes, say all for me.
