Wolfgang Müller von Königswinter, "Mein Herz ist am Rhein" (1841)"English version by G. F. Willis"
Speyer's setting of Müller's poem (op. 42, No. 2) appeared first in Germany in December 1842 (in: Orpheum. Album für Gesang mit Pianoforte, No. 11, pp. 24-5). Singer Johann Baptist Pischek (1814-1873) performed and popularized this song in England since 1845. This is one of the many English editions.
