Vilja Lied,
Franz Lehár
Vilja's song appears in the second act of Lehár's beloved operetta
"The Merry Widow", where a lavish garden party is taking place. Sung by a wealthy widow, Hanna entertains her guests with this song about a mysterious forest coquette who bewitches a young lad and leaves him smitten before she disappears.
