Part 4 — SONG

Reading edition

(AFTER THE FRENCH OF ROSTAND)

O, many a lover sighs Beneath the summer skies For black or hazel eyes All day. No light of hope can mar My whiter brighter star; I love a Princess far Away. Now you that haste to meet Your love's returning feet Must plead for every sweet Caress; But, day and night and day, Without a prayer to pray, I love my far away Princess.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
