My Eyes So Green
Plumes of peacock -
Silver sequins -
Halls and faces are aglow.
Music resounds -
Ev'ry lady
Is dancing around her beau.
Where is my friend
Who I wish would
Seek me hither presently?
Yet I, too, wear
A sequined mask.
How shall he recognize me?
I am the one with eyes so green -
The greenest this court has thus far seen -
And they shall search those who convened
For the fair knight of whom I'm so keen.
He wanders about nigh, I deem -
And he shall hold me in high esteem
And love me true once he has seen
My eyes, oh, my eyes so green.
Let the lutes play
For he found me
And his love lights up my life!
Ocarinas
Whistle a tune
As we celebrate tonight!
