Des Kaufmanns Liebeswerbung
Music: Emilie Zumsteeg (1796–1857) · Words: Ernst Friedrich Conradi
Sieh mein Herz hier ohne Emballage voll
gepackt vom innigsten Gefühl,
One press of Sing plays this song on this device (2:09) and stops after the last: the piano and the words come from the score, so a key change or a slower tempo changes no sound file.
The microphone is asked for only when you press its button. What it hears is measured and scored on this device and never leaves it; nothing is kept unless you record and save the file yourself. What is kept, and where.
The words
Sieh mein Herz hier ohne Emballage voll
gepackt vom innigsten Gefühl,
ohne Spesen, ohne Agiotage kostet mir die
Süsse Waare viel.
Denn Sophie, schwere Seufzer dringen
langsam sich wie Syrop aus der Brust;
an des Herzens Waagebalken hängen mir von
gleicher Schwere Schmerz und Lust.
Und doch ist das Debet meiner Schmerzen
grösser als das Credit meiner Lust,
und ein Falliment ist ohne Scherzen
unvermeidlich meiner armen Brust.
Wirst Du nicht den Wechsel honoriren,
den Cupido mir auf Dich gestellt,
Deine Liebe mir assecuriren,
so cedire ich bald diese Welt.
Doch Sophie, lässt Du mit dir handeln,
gibst mir billige Provision, wird sich in
Profit mein Schmerz verwandeln,
und Prozente sind der Liebe Lohn.
Doch Sophie, lässt Du mit dir handeln,
gibst mir billige Provision, wird sich in
Profit mein Schmerz verwandeln,
und Prozente sind der Liebe Lohn.
Doch Sophie, lässt Du mit dir handeln,
gibst mir billige Provision, wird sich in
Profit mein Schmerz verwandeln,
und Prozente sind der Liebe Lohn.
