oh, foolish fay - gilbert and sullivan lyrics

[verse, fairy queen]
oh, foolish fay
think you, because
his brave array
my bosom thaws
i’d disobey
our fairy laws?
because i fly
in realms above
in tendency
to fall in love

[chorus, fairy queen]
resemble i
the amorous dove?
resemble i
the amorous dove?
oh, amorous dove!
type of ovidius naso!
this heart of mine
is soft as thine
although i dare not say so!
[fairies]
oh, amorous dove!
type of ovidius naso!
[verse, fairy queen]
on fire that glows
with heat intense
i turn the hose
of common sense
and out it goes
at small expense!
we must maintain
our fairy law;
that is thе main
on which to draw *
in that we gain
a captain shaw!
in that we gain
a captain shaw!

[chorus, fairy queen]
oh, captain shaw!
type of truе love kept under!
could thy brigade
with cold cascade
quench my great love, i wonder!
[fairies]
oh, captain shaw!
type of true love kept under!
[fairy queen]
could thy brigade
with cold cascade
quench my great love, i wonder!
