Текст песни: Eyes of grey a sodden quay
Driving rain and falling tears
As the steamer wears to sea
In a parting storm of cheers
Sing for Faith and Hope are high
None so true as you and I
Sing the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of black a throbbing keel
Milky foam to left and right
Whispered converse near the wheel
In the brilliant tropic night
Cross that rules the Southern Sky!
Stars that sweep and wheel and fly
Hear the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of brown a dusy plain
Split and parched with heat of June
Flying hoof and tightened rein
Hearts that beat the old old tune
Side by side the horses fly
Frame we now the old reply
Of the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of blue the Simla Hills
Silvered with the moonlight hoar
Pleading of the waltz that thrills
Dies and echoes round Benmore
“Mabel” “Officers” “Good-bye”
Glamour wine and witchery
On my soul’s sincerity
“Love like ours can never die!”
Maidens of your charity
Pity my most luckless state
Four times Cipid’s debtor I
Bankrupt in quadruplicate
Yet despite this evil case
And a maiden showed me grace
Four-and-forty times would I
Sing the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Driving rain and falling tears
As the steamer wears to sea
In a parting storm of cheers
Sing for Faith and Hope are high
None so true as you and I
Sing the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of black a throbbing keel
Milky foam to left and right
Whispered converse near the wheel
In the brilliant tropic night
Cross that rules the Southern Sky!
Stars that sweep and wheel and fly
Hear the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of brown a dusy plain
Split and parched with heat of June
Flying hoof and tightened rein
Hearts that beat the old old tune
Side by side the horses fly
Frame we now the old reply
Of the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
Eyes of blue the Simla Hills
Silvered with the moonlight hoar
Pleading of the waltz that thrills
Dies and echoes round Benmore
“Mabel” “Officers” “Good-bye”
Glamour wine and witchery
On my soul’s sincerity
“Love like ours can never die!”
Maidens of your charity
Pity my most luckless state
Four times Cipid’s debtor I
Bankrupt in quadruplicate
Yet despite this evil case
And a maiden showed me grace
Four-and-forty times would I
Sing the Lovers’ Litany
“Love like ours can never die!”
