To be read to the melody of: Oblivious Quintinius de Notatium .
Reading this without the music would be like watching a silent ballet...
Pray, a moment here,
where I will tell you (buzz)
of a little buzz-fly near: (buzz)
Hear? (buzz) His little heart beats
for a ballerina dear… (ding buzz)
Hear her lovely dance songs,
ballerina, gently floating in the air…
How he’d be dancing!
in his dreams!
with ballerina, in the air!
air…
(…buzz-buzz-buzz…)
Heavenly,
Charmingly
gracious and…
Fresh!
Captivating,
Fair!
Radiating,
with
her
little fly (that's me!)
Daydreaming-
oh, so close,
lifting her high…
as we would fly-
-among the clouds…
-under the moon…
-across the stars…
Just her and I
Dancing in the sky…
in the sky…
the
sky…
Dreaming…
I’m dreaming,
I leap with her high! (buzz-buzz-biz!)
Higher… (buzz)
and higher… (buzz)
ballerina
and her fly…
Enchanting…
--PROCLAIMING!--
“Me, and ballerina (buzz)
see us floating,
gently floating, (buzz) in the sky!”
“My lovely ballerina!
Take this un-(buzz-buzz-buzz-buzz-buzzzzz-bizzzzz)
expected dance with me-
and fly!”
(buzz!) “Lovely ballerina (buzz!)
Dancing (buzz!) gently,
floating (buzz-buzz-buzz-buzz-buzzzzz-bizzzzz)
freely in the sky…” (buzz)
(buzz) “Lovely ballerina! (buzz-buzz!)
dancing finely (buzz-buzz-buzz-buzz-buzzzzz-bizzzzz)
with me
in the summer sky!”
(…low buzz-buzz-buzz
bizz…)
Free! Positively free!
Absolutely free!
Pirouetting little buzzing fly!
(ordinary, nothing special!)
Free! Ballerina, free!
Delicate and free!
Ballerina and her little fly!
“Come!
Ballerina, come!
Let me take you
dancing on the tributary-currents of the sky!”
"Ring!
Let the music ring!
Let the music weave
ballerina castles in our
waltz-ing ball-er-i-na sky!"
