No. 7 - Duet - "Little Flower of Japan"
| Fujiwara: | Tho' I need no magic pow'r Save my love to hold me true, May I keep this little flow'r, Sweet with tender thoughts of you? |
| Hana: | Take and keep it if you will, People say when lovers part, These betoken faith unbroken, Emblem of a loyal heart. |
| Both: | Little flow'r of Japan, 'Twixt a maid and a man, You've a meaning all your own; For a man, with your aid, Will be true to a maid When she's left to wait alone. Tho' you fade in a day, Yet your fragrance will stay, All your beauty to recall; So all beauty above Is the fragrance of love, Fairest flower, fairest flower of all. |
| Fujiwara: | Next my heart your flow'r shall stay, Keeping love's fair blossom bright, Whispering of you by day, Weaving dreams of you by night. |
| Hana: | Sometimes, so I have been told, Love that blooms the brightest hue Soon grows jaded, faint, and faded; Can it be that this is true? |
| Both: | Little flow'r of Japan, 'Twixt a maid and a man, You've a meaning all your own; For a man, with your aid, Will be true to a maid When she's left to wait alone. Tho' you fade in a day, Yet your fragrance will stay, All your beauty to recall; So all beauty above Is the fragrance of love, Fairest flower, fairest flower of all. Fairest flow'r of all! |
