The lyrics for the English production of Orpheus conducted by Sir John Barbirolli and sung on two occassions at Covent Garden are below and captured on utube in the following link What is Life recording as sung by Kathleen Ferrier.

What is life to me without thee?

What is left if thou art dead?

What is life; life without thee?

What is life without my love?

What is left if thou art dead?

Eurydice! Eurydice!

Ah, hear me. Oh, answer! Oh answer!

Thy dear lord am I so faithful,

My dear lord am I, who loves thee,

Who doth love thee!

What is life to me without thee?

What is left if thou art dead?

What is life; life without thee?

What is life without my love?

What is left if thou art dead?

Eurydice! Eurydice!

In my dread anguish nought can aid me,

None can comfort.

Earth is cruel, heav'n is cold!

What is life to me without thee?

What is left if thou art dead?

What is life; life without thee?

What is left if thou art dead?

If thou art dead?

If thou art dead?"
