If you want to know who we are -- A wand'ring minstrel I -- Our great Mikado, virtuous man -- Young man, despair, likewise go to -- And have I journey'd for a month -- Behold the Lord high executioner! -- As some day it may happen -- Comes a train of little ladies -- Three little maids from school are we -- So please you, sir we much regret -- Were you not to Ko-Ko plighted -- I am so proud -- With aspect stern and gloomy stride -- Braid the raven hair -- The sun, whose rays are all ablaze -- Brightly dawns our wedding day -- Here's a how-de-do! If I marry you -- Mi-ya-sa-ma, mi-ya-sa-ma -- A more humane Mikado never did in Japan exist -- The criminal cried as he dropped him down -- See how the fates their gifts allot -- The flowers that bloom in the spring -- Alone, and yet alive -- On a tree by a river, a little tom-tit sang, Willow, tit-willow -- There is beauty in the bellow of the blast -- For he's gone and married Yum-Yum. |
