  2. Bird of Paradise

    O bird of paradise, O flower of paradise
    Dancing in the sun on the island of Martinique

    Sweet, sweet flower, O sweet, sweet flower,
    You remind me of one so many times

    Sweeter than you. O flower of paradise,
    O flower of paradise, if you have eyes and can see,

    You will marvel at her singing beauty,

    O flower of paradise, O bird of paradise,
    If you have eyes, and can see,

    You will marvel at her marvelous generosity.

    O bird of paradise, O bird of paradise,
    You remind me of my love—

    Star of the emerald isle,
    Where the purple dog is king.
