vocal by Albert Diner
music by Alexander Borodin ( 1890 )
lyrics by Robert Wright and George Forrest
Lyrics
Oh why do the leaves of the mulberry tree whisper differently now?
And why is the nightingale singing at noon on the mulberry bough?
For some most mysterious reason this isn’t the garden I know…
No, it’s paradise now that was only a garden a moment ago
Take my hand I'm a stranger in paradise
All lost in a wonderland a stranger in paradise
If I stand starry-eyed that's a danger in paradise
For mortals who stand beside an angel like you
I saw your face and I ascended
Out of the commonplace into the rare
Somewhere in space I hang suspended
Until I know there's a chance that you'll care
Won't you answer the fervent prayer
Of a stranger in paradise
Don't send me in dark despair from all that I hunger for
But open your angel's arms to the stranger in paradise
And tell him that he need be a stranger no more.
.....
And tell me that I need be a stranger no more
Polovtsian Dances" Fly away on the wings of the wind" (Улетай на крыльях ветра) by Alexander Borodin.
