Gie me howped-for meenits in yir douce-lik oxterin airms;
Manged-for glamour meenits tae fair thirl me wi yir chairms;

Rhythmic an sae magnetic are thase smaachrie mandolinin soonds,
They pluck oor hert-tows tae fesh us baith joy wi'oot boonds ...
wi'oot boonds.

Sweet Mandolining Sounds
Lyrics composed by John Henderson on the 30th June, 2008
to the Nashville Mandolin Ensemble's music for 'Moonlight
Waltz'.
Give me wished for moments in your gently encircling arms;
Longed for magic moments to enthral me with your charms;
Waltzing, touching softly to this mesmerising tune,
We'll sense passions' fond-flow invitingly soon ...
Look into my eyes as they esteem your grace;
And listen to my pulse-beats as they race ... race;
Rhythmic and so magnetic are all these sweet mandolining sounds,
They pluck our heart-strings to bring us both joy without bounds
... without bounds. |
