[KATISHA]
The hour of gladness
Is dead and gone;
In silent sadness
I live alone!
The hope I cherished
All lifeless lies
And all has perished
All has perished
Save love, which never dies!
Oh, faithless one, this insult you shall rue
In vain for mercy on your knees you'll sue!
I'll tear the mask from your disguising!
[NANKI-POO]
Now comes the blow!
[KATISHA]
Prepare yourselves for news surprising!
[NANKI-POO]
How foil my foe?
[KATISHA]
No minstrel he, despite bravado!
The hour of gladness
Is dead and gone;
In silent sadness
I live alone!
The hope I cherished
All lifeless lies
And all has perished
All has perished
Save love, which never dies!
Oh, faithless one, this insult you shall rue
In vain for mercy on your knees you'll sue!
I'll tear the mask from your disguising!
[NANKI-POO]
Now comes the blow!
[KATISHA]
Prepare yourselves for news surprising!
[NANKI-POO]
How foil my foe?
[KATISHA]
No minstrel he, despite bravado!
