“Hail, most beautiful, precious gem!”
Sweetest, Sweetest, Sweetest, Sweetest
I saw a blooming flower, I saw a shining flower,
I saw a rose, finer than all the Midianites,
I saw a gorgeous star, the clearest of all
For which I was led to falling in love
Sweetest, Sweetest
“Hail, most beautiful, precious gem!”
What more? Around that maiden’s neck I threw my arms,
I give her a thousand kisses, a thousand I got back,
And very often I said, declaring:
“Sure, that’s definitely what I desired so much!”
Sweetest, Sweetest
“Hail, most beautiful, precious gem!”
Sweetest, Sweetest, Sweetest, Sweetest, Sweetest
