Lyrics
Dance and song make glad the night
Hark the castanets are sounding light
Come, ah, come! Ah! Ah!
Come, ah, come! Ah!
Love, I watch the scene so bright
Ah! now rings a voice I know
From every voice a part
Thro’ the orange grove he hastens
He is coming oh my heart
Ah! now rings a voice I know
From every voice apart
Thro’ the orange grove he hastens
He is coming, oh! my heart
Ah, ‘mid the throng, many many are fair
Bright flow’rets in raven hair
Dark eyes sparkle and gleam
Soft lips breathe tender sighs
Shall I seem fairest seem in his eyes?
Ah! Joy! Ah joy! he comes to me!
Hark now rings the music
While the silver moonbeams
In the dance, love, and forever
I am thine, only thine
