Some think the world is made for fun and frolic
And so do I!
Some think it well to be all melancholic
To pine and sigh
But I, I love to spend my time in singing
Some joyous song
To set the air with music bravely ringing
Is far from wrong!
Listen! Listen! echoes sound afar!
Listen! Listen! echoes sound afar!
Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula
Echoes sound afar! funiculi, funicula
Some think it wrong to set the feet a-dancing
But not so I
Some think that eyes should keep from coyly glancing
Upon the sly!
But oh! to me the mazy dance is charming
Divinely sweet,
And surely there is nought that is alarming
In nimble feet?
Listen! Listen! music sounds afar!
Listen! Listen! music sounds afar!
Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula
Music sounds afar! funiculi, funicula
Ah me! 'tis strange that some should take to sighing
And like it well
For me, I have not thought it worth the trying
So cannot tell!
With laugh and dance and song the day soon passes
Full soon is gone,
For mirth was made for joyous lads and lasses
To call their own!
Listen! Listen! hark! the soft guitar!
Listen! Listen! hark! the soft guitar!
Funiculi funicula, funiculi funicula
Hark! the soft guitar! funiculi funicula
