Thanks Roger! Now I can post "Danny Boy" .............TimJ Oh Danny boy, the pipes ,the pipes are calling From glen to glen , and down the mountain side The summer's gone, and all the flowers are dying 'Tis you ,'tis you must go and I must bide. But come ye back when summer's in the meadow Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so. And if you come when all the flowers are dying And I am dead, as dead I well may be You'll come and find the place where I am lying And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me. But I will hear tho' soft [/b you tread above me
And all my dreams will warm and sweeter be
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me.

Hi Dori, No, the booklet unfortunately does not contain any lyrics !! They are of course obtainable! Hayley's diction is so distinct to me, that I am mostly happy not to worry about reading the lyrics on paper ! Well, that's my opinion anyway ! Love, Marianne  |

I know that for Odyssey there were no lyrics in the booklet, but the Japanese version had a seperate booklet also that included lyrics in English and Japanese. Hopefully the same will be true for Treasure since I will be getting the Japanese version. I'll just be happy to get the cd! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

Santa Lucia
Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento.
Placida e l'onda, prospero il vento.
Sul mare luccica l'astro d'argento.
Placida e l'onda, prospero il vento.
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
O dolce Napoli, o suol beato,
ove sorridere volle il creato!
O dolce Napoli, o suol beato,
ove sorridere volle il creato!
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
Venite all'agile barchetta mia!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
English translation:
The silver star shines on the sea,
the waves are gentle, the wind is favourable.
Come to my swift little boat!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!
O dear Naples, o blessed land,
where creation was pleased to smile!
Come to my swift little boat!
Santa Lucia! Santa Lucia!

Hi mountaingirl,
Thank you very much for posting the words of 'Santa Lucia'. I was worried that nobody would provide those in a foreign language!
As I was reading your post and listening to the song, I wished we could have the English translation. By the time it had finished playing, and as though by magic, you had edited them in! So that's thank you twice!
Roger

So now I can add the lyrics to "Bist Du Bei Mir".
Bist du bei mir, geh ich mit Freuden
zum Sterben und zu meiner Ruh,
zum Sterben und zu meiner Ruh.
Ach, wie vergnügt wär so mein Ende,
es drückten deine schönen Hände
mir die getreuen Augen zu!
Bist du bei mir, geh ich mit Freuden
zum Sterben und zu meiner Ruh,
zum Sterben und zu meiner Ruh.
I must say that I love this song for quite a long time now and as I never understood the lyrics (because the singer's German was too bad). Now I know it's a really very sad song.
English translation by nassbirne:
If you’re with me, I’m gonna die and rest with delight.
Oh, how merry would my passing be, your lovely hands would close my faithful eyes!
If you’re with me, I’m gonna die and rest with delight.
(Charlotte Church used these lyrics:
If Thou art near when life is closing
All joyful shall I fall asleep,
Be Thou with me as I awaken,
And claim my soul when I arise
If Thou art near when life is closing,
All joyful shall I fall asleep,
Ah, how serene, were thus my passing,
Thy tender hand upraised in blessing
Would sanctify my slumber deep
Be Thou with me, as I awaken
And claim my soul when I arise.)

Well, that's a cheerful little ditty, isn't it?  Somehow the lyrics are not what I had expected from this delightfully attractive melody. Nevertheless, thank you for posting them, Frauke and nassbirne for the translation. Roger |

The Heart Worships
Silence in Heav'n,
Silence on Earth
Silence within!
Thy hush, O Lord,
O'er all the world covers the din.
I do not fear to speak of thee in mortal kind
And yet to all thy namelessness I am not blind.
Only I need and kneel again
Thy touch to win;
Silence in Heav'n
Silence on Earth
Silence within!

Hello Mark and everybody!  I've found the lyrics of 'Summer Fly' on the composer's website: www.cherylwheeler.com/songs/sf.htmlEdit: I've checked the lyrics in HMV, 150 Oxford Street where 'Treasure' is on a listening post, and Hayley sings a few slightly different words. Here are the lyrics as sung on the album:- Summer Fly Words And Music By:
Cheryl Wheeler In another younger day I could dream the time away In the universe inside my room And the world was really mine from June till September And if it wasn't really so I was lucky not to know And I was lucky not to wonder why 'cause a summertime is all that I remember Summer fly was buzzin' every night When I was young In the gentle world my childlike senses knew And the world was just my cousin And the wind was just the tongue In the voice my lonely moments listened to And I look at me today all the dreams have gone away And I'm where I never thought I'd be Seein' things I never thought I'd see happen to me And I lie awake at night till the darkness turns to light Hearin' voices callin' out my name Callin' over and again the same message to me Cryin' who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's your baby now? Who wakes up at night to pull you in It don't matter, you just make her* lonely anyhow Don't know why you even try to win 10/28/79

Summer Rain
Days of burning sun
Watch the colours run
Into pools that catch the eye
Disappear as you pass by
You’re my summer rain
You’re my summer rain
And I know that I’ll see you again
And I know that I’ll see you again
Hear my prayer
Answer my call
Breathe life into my soul
I am waiting for you to show
Come and hold me so
You’re my summer rain
You’re my summer rain
And I know that I’ll see you again
And I know that I’ll see you again
Dreams of a day with you
Fading away
You’re my summer rain
You’re my summer rain
And I know and I know and I know that I’ll see you again
And I know and I know and I know that I’ll see you again
Summer rain
You’re my summer rain
And I know and I know and I know that I’ll see you again
And I know and I know and I know that I’ll see you again
Ah huh ah
Summer rain
Ah huh ah
Summer rain
