Midsummer Night's Happening |
Oldfield |
Sunlight falling bright over the village garden walls |
Moonlight showers gold where living water falls |
People walk in splendour under trees hung in starlight |
Candlelight lawns sweep down to the river that ripples on pebbles of turquoise |
Fountains of golden light burst in quavers that float among the stars |
The tables are laid with fruits of the wine and cedar from Samarkand |
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 hall with a goblet of shining amber |
Then nectar and brandy, wine and mead come flowing from shimmering springs |
They all menuet to a string quartet and the Marquis’s daughter shall sing |
Gentle maidens walking in the garden |
While they’r courted by the knights from the palace of love |
They are all dressed in white with flowers of palest colour |
They are all singing songs to the yellow moon above |
Come to the Ball my love, sip sweet ambrosia |
Tip in the forest Titania my love |
Would you like brandy wine? |
Shall we go now and dine? |
We’ll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set |
We shall dance through the midsummer night |
Come my pretty Oberon trip, trip, trip |
Come and sing a summer song trip, trip |
I know a bank where cowslips trip |
Whereon the wild thyme sits trip, trip |
Dance in the midsummer night |
Come my pretty puck and squeeze this magic flower |
In the eyes of lovers in the midnight hour |
This a flower of wonder is a magic seed |
When they shall awake lay heaven at their feet |
Would you like brandy wine? |
Shall we go now and dine? |
We’ll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set |
We shall dance through the midsummer night |
