The Sallyangie - Midsummer Night's Happening lyrics

Sunlight falling bright over the village garden walls Moonlight showers gold where living water falls People walk in splendour under trees hung in starlight Orange groves are bursting out into green leaves moonlight. 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? [Yes I would, Sir] Shall we go now and dine? [Yes I would, Sir] 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 through 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 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? [Yes I would, Sir] Shall we go now and dine? [Yes I would, Sir] We'll do the merry minuet till the yellow moon has set We shall dance through the midsummer night
