All
:
A bridal march
The funeral dirge becomes!
Let Heaven's arch
Re-echo the band of drums!
O happy pairs
United this afternoon
We greet you one and all
Both great and small
With a popular Persian tune!
Oh, raise your voice
In epithalamiums!
O King rejoice,
And Tale-Teller of the slums!
To high or low
True love is an equal boon,
There's no one here too base
To find a place
In popular Persian tune!
O! raise your voice, let all rejoice,
Illalah! Illalah!
There's none too base
To find a place
Illalah! Illalah!
Raise your voice,
All rejoice,
Raise your voice,
Endeavour to sing a Persian tune!
A popular Persian tune,
A popular Persian tune,
A popular, popular Persian tune,
A popular Persian tune!
Illalah! Illalah! lalah!
End of Opera.
