TARANTELLA DREAMS (TRAUME) This number is appropr-iate just now because of the present situation in Spain Tell me what those dreams of wonder Do you remember an Inn, I All my soul in bonds enchaining, Miranda? Not like bubbles burst asunder, Leaving naught but foam remaining? ])0 you remember an Inn? i And the tedding and the spreading Of the straw for a bedding, Visions ever brighter growing And the fleas that tease in the High Pyrenees, Ev'ry day and ev'ry hour, And the wine that tasted of the tar? With a heav'n-born lustre glowing, And the cheers and the jeers' of the young muleteers Mighty in their holy pow'r. (Under the dark of the vine verandah)? Visions, rays of glory taking, Do you remember an Inn, Miranda, Bringing rapture none can measure, Do you remember an Inn? In my heart her image making, And the cheers and the jeers of the' young muleteers All forgotten save my treasure. Who hadn't got a penny, And who weren't paying any, Visions, as when spring-time voices And the hammer at the doors and-the Din? Call from snow the blossoms sweet, And the Hip! Hop! Hap! . Ev'ry tiny bud rejoices, Of the clap . Glad the new-born day to greet. Of the hands to the twirl and the swirl Of the girl gone chancing, Let the flowers, blooming brightly, Glancing, Soft exhale their fragrant breath. Dancing, On thy bosom resting lightly, Let them, fading, sink to death. Backing and advancing, I Snapping of the clapper to the spin Out and in- Visions! And the T'ing, Tong, Tang of the guitar! Do you remember an Inn, Miranda? Do you remember an Inn? PILGRIM'S SONG My blessing fall on this fair world, N ever more; On mountain, valley, forest, ocean. Miranda, The clarion winds in ceaseless motion X ever more. And heav'n's blue banner high unfurled. Only the high peaks hoar: And Aragon a torrent at the door. And bless the staff that hither bore me, No sound The alms that help'd me on my way, In the walls of the Halls where falls The boundless plain that lies before me, The tread I The glowing morn, the evening gray! Of the feet of the dead to the rrounc1. No sound: The very path by which I wander On 10'the boom I Shows glorious, golden, bathed in light; Of the far Waterfall like Doorn. -Hilaire Bclloc. No blade of grass that glistens yonder I But seems a star from heaven's height. LORD, I WA\NT TO BE God's boundless love to His creation Lord, I want to be more lovin' in-a my heart, in-a my heart. Speaks through this beauty to my heart! I don't want to be like Judas in-a my heart, Fain would I in rare exaltation In-a my heart, Lord, I don't wa nt l to be like Judas in-a my heart. Sound through the world the wondrous message, Of boundless love to all creation, Lord, I want to be like Jesus in-a J1Y heart, in-a my heart, To all, his love and joy impart! In-a my heart, Lord. I want to be /like Jesus in-a my heart. -Tolstoy. HO, JOLLY JENKIN The wind blows cold across the moor, With driving rain and rending tree, I t smites the pious hermit's door, But not a jot cares he, F or close he sits within, and makes his merry din. Refrain: "Ho, jolly Jenkin, I spy a knave in drinkin'; And trow I the brown bowl to me! Appreciation is extended to the following who generously Then Ho, jolly Jenkin, I spy a knave ill' drinkin: donated toward the success of the concert: And trawl, the bonny bowl to me." Bates Motoramp Garage, Inc. The wind a roaring song may sing, In crashing wood or frighted town, Hotel Garage, lnc. It whirls the mantle of a king as 'twere a beggar's gown; But caring not a jot we sing and drain the pot. Benson Hotel -Sturgis.
