No. 23 - Additional Duet for Chandra and Jack
Jack: | Out of the radiant East, Fresh as the dawn and fair, Love, for a while released, Rose in a beauty rare. Fanning the sacred flame, Fortune, with fancy blest, Smiled upon him who came Out of the golden West. |
Both: | O mystic Love! Whom poets praise And human hearts enshrine, When mortals are allowed to gaze Upon your charms divine, They hold your joys in high esteem, All other joys above; And life will seem a long, long dream, Of love and only love. |
Chandra: | Whether for good or ill, Love was a stranger yet All my life through until, Dear one, when first we met. Bright does the future seem Under its golden sway, Happiness all supreme Reigns in our hearts today. |
Both: | O mystic Love! Whom poets praise And human hearts enshrine, When mortals are allowed to gaze Upon your charms divine, They hold your joys in high esteem, All other joys above; And life will seem a long, long dream, Of love and only love! A long, long dream, a long, long dream of love, and only love! |
