ฟังเพลงStranger in Paradise (from " Kismet")

Stranger in paradise - Richard Kiley

Oh why do the leaves

Of the Mulberry tree

Whisper differently now

And why is the nightingale singing

At noon on the Mulberry bow

For some most mysterious reason

This isn't the garden I know

No it's paradise now

That was only a garden

A moment ago

Take my hand

I'm a stranger in paradise

All lost in a wonderland

A stranger in paradise

If I stand starry eyed

That's a danger in paradise

For mortals who stand beside

An angel like you

I saw your face

And I ascended

Out of the commonplace

Into the rare

Somewhere in space

I hang suspended

Until I know

There's a chance that you care

Won't you answer the fervent prayer

Of a stranger in paradise

Don't send me in dark despair

From all that I hunger for

But open your angel's arms

To the stranger in paradise

And tell him

That he need be

A stranger no more

I saw your face

And I ascended

Out of the commonplace

Into the rare

Somewhere in space

I hang suspended

Until I know

There's a chance that you care

Won't you answer the fervent prayer

Of a stranger in paradise

Don't send me in dark despair

From all that I hunger for

But open your angel's arms

To the stranger in paradise

And tell me that I may be

A stranger no more.
