Lyrics
Who is Silvia what is she That all our swains commend her Holy fair and wise is she The heavens such grace did lend her That she might admirèd be Is she kind as she is fair For beauty lives with kindness Love does to her eyes repair To help him of his blindness And being helped inhabits there Then to Silvia let us sing To her let us garlands bring Then to Silvia let us sing To her let us garlands bring Then to Sylvia let us sing That Sylvia is excelling She excels each mortal thing Upon the dull earth dwelling To her let us garlands bring Then to Silvia let us sing To her let us garlands bring Then to Silvia let us sing To her let us garlands bring (Let us sing) To her let us garlands bring (Let us sing) To her let us garlands bring (Let us sing) To her let us garlands bring (Let us sing) Words by William Shakespeare (1589); Music (c) 2024 by Jack E. Morris
