Song

by Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine was a renowned German poet, journalist, and critic best known for his influential lyric poetry. His early works, set to music by composers like Schumann and Schubert, gained widespread recognition. Heine's later writings exhibited a sharp wit and satirical edge, often targeting political and social issues. Due to his radical views, many of his works were banned in Germany, leading him to spend his final years in exile in Paris.
