Sapphische Ode

So my voice instructor gave me a new assignment.
It's a song in German by Brahms. It was inspired by a poem controversial in its time because the author was a woman AND it was well-known, and partly because the poem was about the Libyan Amazon Queen Myrina who led an army of women that conqured many lands including the Greek Island called Lesbos.
Anyway, I accept the challenge of singing in German.

... speaking of 'excepting challenges', will you accept the following challenge:

I challenge you to put down your journal for a moment, put on your typing gloves, and fashion a blog entry for the rest of us who are madly intrigued by your exercizes in consciousness.

I know, it's a bit presumptuous, but I thought I'd put that out there. How are you doing by the way?
