KALUA (From the 1951 movie "BIRD OF PARADISE")

      (O wai ka halia ka annoi a loko?

     O wai ka halia ka annoi a loko?)

 

This is my night of love,

The shining hour of Kalua.

 

Her song is in the air...

Her lips are waiting there.

Who will be Kalua's only love?

      (O wai ka halia ka annoi a loko?)

 

Before the night is old

My arms will hold Kalua.

 

And where the tradewinds blow

Soft and low

     (Soft and low.)

Our love will blossom bright

In the night

     (In the night.)

 

And stars will sing above

The love song of Kalua.

 

     (O wai ka halia ka annoi a loko?

     This is his night of love,

     This is the hour of Kalua.)

 

My arms are open now...

My heart has spoken now

Who will be Kalua's only love?

 

     (His arms are open now...

     His heart has spoken now.)

 

Before the night is old

My arms will hold Kalua.

 

My beating heart is true,

Wanting you.

     (Wanting you.)

Your beating heart I see

Wanting me.

     (Wanting me.)

 

And now my song is through.

I give to you, Kalua.

FEED THE BIRDS (From the movie and play "MARY POPPINS")

Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's
   The little old bird woman comes.
In her own special way to the people she calls,
   "Come, buy my bags full of crumbs;

Come feed the little birds,
Show them you care
   And you'll be glad if you do.
Their young one are hungry,
Their nests are so bare...
   All it takes is tuppence from you.

Feed the birds, tuppence a bag.
   Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag.
Feed the birds", that's what she cries
   While overhead, her birds fill the skies.

All around the cathedral the saints and apostles
   Look down as she sells her wares.
Although you can't see it,
You know they are smiling
   Each time someone shows that he cares.

Though her words are simple and few...
   Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag.
   Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag".

Though her words are simple and few...
   Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag...
   Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag".

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag.

STAY AWAKE (From the movie and play "MARY POPPINS")

Stay awake, don't rest your head.
Don't lie down upon your bed.
While the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes.

Though the world is fast asleep,
Though your pillow's soft and deep,
You're not sleepy as you seem...
Stay awake, don't nod and dream.

Though the world is fast asleep,
Though your pillow's soft and deep,
You're not sleepy as you seem...
Stay awake, don't nod and dream.

Stay awake, don't nod and dream.

HUSHABYE MOUNTAIN (From the movie and play "CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG")

A gentle breeze from Hushabye Mountain
Softly blows o'er Lullaby Bay.
It fills the sails of boats that are waiting,
Waiting to sail your worries away.

It isn't far to Hushabye Mountain,
And your boat waits down by the quay.
The winds of night so softly are sighing.
Soon they will fly your troubles to the sea.

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain,
Wave goodbye to cares of the day.
And watch your boat from Hushbye Mountain
Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.

So close your eyes on Hushabye Mountain.
Wave goodbye to cares of the day.
And watch your boat from Hushabye Mountain
Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.

Sail far away from Lullaby Bay.

HERE INSIDE (From the 2006 movie "THE ADVENTURES OF GREYFRIARS BOBBY")

Slowly I wake,
The sun fills the room and I am back
Here in the real world again
Leaving behind the sound of our laughter in long,
Long sunny days without end.

Only moments ago life was still just so sublime
   in dreams where we're still together all the time.
It hurts to believe that it never will be so again.

But how sweet the memory that lights up my nights
   so although you are gone, you will live on with me here inside.

Where is the world,
   where is the world that we knew?
How can it just cease to be?

Where is that life,
   the life that I knew in my heart
That led to my destiny?
In another life form my tomorrows I could see.
But now there is so much uncertainty
   and all that I know is
I'm lost and alone with you.

But how sweet the memory that lights up my nights
   so although you are gone, you will live on with me here inside.

Although you are gone
   you will live on with me here inside.
