Hanna Glawari :
Gee up, lassie, here we are
Off we go but not too far
Take us down the boulevard
Jogging so sedately
Gee up, lassie, not so slow
Prance and jingle as we go
Take the road all lovers know
Lots have been there lately
 
Count Danilo :
Madam, here’s your evening shawl
May be chilly after ten
 
Hanna Glawari :
Sir, I trust when shadows fall
I’ll be back at home by then
 
Jogging in a one-horse gig
Any time of night or day
Careless of the weather
Very close together
Lovers fall in love that way
 
Jogging in a one-horse gig
Stopping at a small café
Sitting there and gazing
Isn’t it amazing ?
Lovers fall in love that way
 
Count Danilo :
Look out, lassie, here’s the spot
Graze in yonder grassy plot
We shall stay here, rain or not
Chatting quite contented
 
Easy now, you jog too fast
That’s the place we’ve trotted past
Now’s the time to halt at last
Madam has consented
 
Hanna Glawari :
Sir, I feel a vague unease
Shouldn’t we be turning back ?
 
Count Danilo :
Gladly, madam, as you please
Luckily I’ve lost the track
 
Hanna Glawari :
Jogging in a one-horse gig
 
Count Danilo :
Saying what you long to say
 
Hanna Glawari :
Titillating, teasing
 
Count Danilo :
Mutually pleasing
 
Both :
Lovers fall in love that way
 
Hanna Glawari :
Jogging in a one-horse gig
Feeling in the mood for play
Starting out at seven
Destination heaven
 
Both :
Jogging back to earth next day
 
Hanna Glawari :
‘Tisn’t you and I, though
 
Count Danilo :
Wish we didn’t sigh so
 
Hanna Glawari :
Lovers fall in love that way
RETOUR
THE MERRY WIDOW
