- In Old Madrid - Partition musicale
- Long years ago in old Madrid,
Where softly sighs of love the light guitar
Two sparkling eyes a lattice hid,
Two eyes as darkly bright as love's own star !
There on the casement ledge when day o'er,
A tiny hand was lightly laid;
A face look'd out, as from the river shore,
There stole a tender serenade !
Rang the lover's happy song
Light and low front shore to shore,
But ah ! the river flow'd along
Between them ever more...
Come my love, the stars are shining,
Time is flying,
Love is sighting,
Come for thee a heart is pining,
Here alone I wait for thee !
Far, far away from old Madrid,
Her lover fell, long years, for Spain...
A convent veil those sweet eyes hid;
And all the vows that love had sigh'd were vain!
But still between the dusk and night, 'tis said,
Her white hand open the lattice wide,
The faint sweet echo of that serenade,
Floats weirdly o'er the misty tide !
Still she lists her lover song,
Still he sings up on the shore,
Though flows a stream than all more strong,
Between them ever more !
Come, my love, the stars are shining,
Time is flying,
Love is sighting,
Come for thee a heart is pinging.
Here alone, I wait for thee, alone I wait..
I wait for thee, my love...
I wait for thee;
Oh come my love,
I wait for thee, I wait for thee, my love for thee !

L'histoire se déroule en Espagne au temps jadis : de sa fenêtre une jeune femme entend la douce musique que joue un jeune homme assis sur la rive située en face de sa maison (plaques 2 et 3). Ils tombent amoureux l'un de l'autre, mais la guerre vient empêcher cet amour et le preux chevalier succombe sur le champ de bataille (plaque 4). De douleur, la jeune fille entre dans les ordres et pleure celui qu'il a aimé (plaque 5).
