New Feature Alert


It’s now easier than ever to see both the author's and the composer's versions of a text!

After more than a year in development, I'm thrilled to announce that we've finally implemented the ability to view "sung texts" with all the modifications by a given composer already applied. Over 10,000 pages will benefit from this improvement. It should especially benefit those of you who need accurate texts for concert programs and CD booklets.

I'm excited to share this new feature with all of you and hope that it enhances your experience on the LiederNet Archive. Take some time to explore and enjoy! — Emily

No quiero tus avellanas
Language: Spanish (Español) 
Our translations:  ENG GER
No quiero tus avellanas, 
tampoco tus alelíes,
porque me han salido vanas 
las palabras que me diste.

Las palabras que me diste yendo 
por aqua a la fuente,
como eran palabras de amor 
se las llevó la corriente.

Se las llevó la corriente 
de las cristalinas aguas
hasta llegar a la fuente 
donde me diste palabra,

Donde me diste palabra 
de ser mía hasta la muerte.
