AND ALL THE BOYS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD,
GO CRAZY OVER ME.

Submitter comment:
TO SING THIS SONG THE GROUP CAN BE DIVIDED WITH ONE PART SINGING
THE MELODY AND THE OTHER SINGING "DEE A DEE UM DUM" THROUGH THE SONG.
IT SOUNDS EVEN BETTER IF THE HARMONY IS DIVIDED INTO LOW AND
HIGH PARTS.

THE LAST MAZUR (POLISH SONG)
COME, LET'S DANCE ANOTHER MAZUR,
THOUGH THE DAY IS BREAKING,
"MAY I HAVE THE HONOR, KRYSIA,"
YOUNG LANCER IS SAYING.

HUNDRED PAIRS TO FOLLOW.
GALLANT LANCER WHISPERS SOFTLY,
WITH HIS SPURS ARINGING,
KRYSIA'S HEART IS BEATING LOUDLY,
AND HER CHEEKS ARE BURNING.
"STEADY YOUNG HEART, STOP YOUR DREAMING,
LANCER CAN'T BE FAITHFUL,
FROM THE DISTANCE DRUMS ARE CALLING,
AND THE CANNON FEARFUL."

FOLK SONG (FROM THE EASTERN COUNTRYSIDE)
FROM THE EASTERN COUNTRY SIDE ,
THE LITTLE SUN WAS RISING,
AND IN THE WEST,
A LITTLE CLOUD WAS TRAVELING.
I SAW A YOUNG MAIDEN
WALKING ALONG THE ROAD,

THAT WAS RISING IN THE EAST.
COME HERE MY YOUNG MAIDEN,
COME HERE BY MY SIDE.
THEN BOTH OF US WILL SAY,
MANY SOFT LOVING WORDS.
