| MIDI File [16Kb, 1' 52"] | |
| Princess Toto. | ||
| Like an arrow from its quiver | ||
| Comes my love this very day. | ||
| On the ever-running river | ||
| Speeds my love upon his way. | ||
| Comes to give a lover’s greeting, | ||
| Comes to press me to his heart: | ||
| Those who meet with such a meeting | ||
| Surely never, never part. | ||
| Over spotted meadows fleeting, | ||
| Over hill and over lea, | ||
| Flushed with joyous hope of meeting, | ||
| Comes my love to marry me, Comes my love to marry me, Comes my love to marry me. |
||
| I the while, my love awaiting, | ||
| Sit in silence, prim and coy: | ||
| Yet my heart is palpitating, | ||
| And I can’t conceal my joy! | ||
| Though I droop my eyes demurely, | ||
| Though my hands I primly fold. | ||
| Yet my beating heart will surely | ||
| Tell the truth that they withhold. | ||
| Tell the truth that gaily fleeting | ||
| Over hill and over lea, | ||
| Flushed with joyous hope of meeting, | ||
| Comes my love to marry me, Comes my love to marry me, Comes my love to marry me! |
