Many Moons Ago
作詞:Marshall Barer, Mary Rodgers
Many moons ago in a far off place Lived a handsome prince with a gloomy face For he did not have a bride
Oh, he sighed, 'Alas' and he cried, 'Alas' For alas, the prince couldn't find a lass Who would suit his mother's pride
For a princess is a delicate thing Delicate and dainty as a dragonfly's wing You can recognize a lady by her elegant air But a genuine princess is exceedingly rare
On a stormy night to the castle door Came the lass the prince had been waiting for 'I'm a princess lost', quoth she
But the queen was cool and remained aloof And she said, 'Perhaps, but we'll need some proof I'll prepare a test and see' 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
'I will test her thus', the old queen said 'I'll put twenty downy mattresses upon her bed And beneath those twenty mattresses, I'll place one tiny pea If that pea disturbs her slumber then a true princess is she'
Now the bed was soft and extremely tall But the dainty lass didn't sleep at all And she told them so next day
Said the queen, 'My dear, if you felt that pea Then we've proof enough of your royalty Let the wedding music play'
And the people shouted quietly, 'Hurray!'
For a princess is a delicate thing Delicate and dainty as a dragonfly's wing You can recognize a lady by her elegant air But a genuine princess is exceedingly rare
