Beggar's Opera, The - Song
Were I laid on Greenland's Coast,
And in my Arm's embrac'd my Lass;
Warm amidst eternal Frost,
Too soon the Half Year's Night would pass. I,i
Were I sold on Indian Soil,
Soon as the burning Day was clos'd,
I could mock the sultry Toil,
When on my Charmer's Breast repos'd.
And I would love you all the Day,
Every Night would kiss and play,
If with me you'd fondly stray
Over the Hills and far away.
And in my Arm's embrac'd my Lass;
Warm amidst eternal Frost,
Too soon the Half Year's Night would pass. I,i
Were I sold on Indian Soil,
Soon as the burning Day was clos'd,
I could mock the sultry Toil,
When on my Charmer's Breast repos'd.
And I would love you all the Day,
Every Night would kiss and play,
If with me you'd fondly stray
Over the Hills and far away.
