ฟังเพลงCamelot: The Simple Joys of Maidenhood

The Simple Joys of Maidenhood - Julie Andrews/Original Broadway Cast of Camelot

Written by：Frederick Loewe/Alan Jay Lerner/Goddard Lieberson

Saint Geneiveve Saint Geneiveve

It's Guinivere remember me

Saint Geneiveve Saint Geneiveve

I'm over here beneath this tree

You know how faithful and devote I am

You must admit I have always been a lamb

But Geneiveive Saint Geneiveve

I won't obey you any more

You've gone a bit too far

I won't be bid and bargained for

Like beads in a bazarre

Saint Geneiveve I've run away

Eluded them and fled

And from now on I intend to pray on some

One else instead

Oh Geneiveve Saint Geneiveve

Where were you when my youth was sold

Dear Geneiveve sweet Geneiveve

Shan't I be young before I'm old

Where are the simple joys of maidenhood

Where are all those adoring daring boys

Where's the knight pining so for me

He leaps to death in woe for me

Oh where are a maiden's simple joys

Shan't I have the normal life a maiden should

Shall I never be rescued in the wood

Shall two knights never tilt for me

And let their blood be spilt for me

Oh where are the simple joys of maidenhood

Shall I not be on a pedestal

Worshipped and competed for

Not be carried off or better still

'Cause a little war

Where are the simple joys of maidenhood

Are those sweet gentle pleasures gone for good

Shall a feud not begin for me

Shall kith not kill their kin for me

Oh where are the trivial joys

Harmless convivial joys

Where are the simple joys of maidenhood
