Sunlight falling bright over the garden walls
Moonlight showers go where living water falls
People walk in splendor under trees hung in starlight
Orange groves are bursting out into green leaves of moonlight
Candlelight lawns sweep down to the
river that ripples on rivers of turquoise
Fountains of golden light burst in flavors that flow among the stars
Tables are laid with fruits of the vine and cedar from summer canals
The golden gates are open wide for the people all over the land
A thousand
dancing chandeliers shine in my lady's chamber
My lord comes swaying through the
halls with a garland of shining amber
Nectar and brandy,
wine and meat come flowing in shimmering spring fruits
They all minuet to a string quartet
and the marquess's daughter shall sing
Gentle
maidens walking in the gardens They're
courted by the knights from the palace
They're all dressed in white,
the flowers are painted in color
They're all singing songs to their dame,
my love
Would you like brandy, wine?
Shall we go now and buy?
We'll do the merriment,
you wait We shall dance through the meet summer night
Come my pretty Oberon,
come the eyes of lovers in this
midnight hour There's a flower of wine,
there's a magic sheet When they shall awake,
heaven at their feet Dance through the midsummer night
Would you like brandy, wine?
Shall we go now and buy?
We'll do the merriment,
you wait In the yellow moon I shall get
We shall dance through the midsummer night
Come my pretty Oberon,
come the eyes of lovers in this
midnight hour There's a flower of wine,
there's a magic sheet When they shall awake,
heaven at their feet Dance through the midsummer night
Gentle maidens walking in the gardens They're
courted by the knights from the palace,
my love
They're all dressed in white,
the flowers are painted in color
They're all singing songs to their dame, my love
Would you like brandy, wine?
Shall we go now and buy?
We'll do the merriment,
you wait In the yellow moon I shall get
We shall dance through the midsummer night
