1
Here she comes in her palanquin
2
On the back of an elephant
3
On a bed made of linen and sequins and silk
4
All astride on her father's line
5
With the king and his concubines
6
And her nurse with her pitchers of liquors and milk
7
And we'll all come praise the infanta
8
And we'll all come praise the infanta
9
Among five score pachyderm
10
Each canopied and passengered
11
Sit the Duke and the Duchess' luscious young girls
12
Within sight of the baroness
13
Seething spite for this live largesse
14
By her side sits the baron, her barrenness barbs her
15
And we'll all come praise the infanta
16
And we'll all come praise the infanta
17
A phalanx on camel back
18
Thirty ranks on a forward tack
19
Followed close, their shiny bright standards waving
20
While behind in their coach in fours
21
Ride the wives of the king of moors
22
And the veiled young virgin, the prince's betrothed
23
And we'll all come praise the infanta
24
And we'll all come praise the infanta
25
And as she sits upon her place
26
Her innocence laid on her face
27
From all atop the parapets blow a multitude of coronets
28
Melodies rhapsodical and fair
29
And all our hearts afire, the sky ablaze with cannon fire
30
We all raise our voices to the air, to the air
31
And above all this falderal
32
On a bed made of chaparral
33
She is laid, a coronal placed on her brow
34
And the babe, all in slumber dreams
35
Of a place filled with quiet streams
36
And the lake where her cradle was pulled from the water
37
And we'll all come praise the infanta
38
And we'll all come praise the infanta
39
And we'll all come praise the infanta
