作曲 : Cole Porter

I feel a sudden urge to sing

The kind of ditty that invokes the spring

So, control your desire to curse while I crucify the verse

This verse you've started seems to me the tin pan-tithesis of melody

So to spare you all the pain, I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain

Mi mi mi mi, re re re re, do so mi, do la si

The night is young, the skies are clear

So if you wanna go walkin', dear

It's delightful

It's delicious

It's de-lovely

I understand the reason why

You're sentimental, 'cause so am I

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance

You can hear, dear mother nature murmuring low let yourself go

So please be sweet, my chickadee

And when I kiss ya, just say to me

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious

It's dilemma, it's de limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely

Time marches on and soon it's plain

You've won my heart and I lost my brain

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

Life seems so sweet that we decide

It's in the bag to get unified

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

See the crowd in that church

See the proud parson plopped on his perch

Get the sweet beat of that organ sealing our doom

Here goes the groom, boom

How they cheer and how they smile

As we go galopping down the aisle

It's divine, dear, it's de-vene, dear, it's de-wunderbar, it's de-victory

It's de-velop, it's de-vinner, it's de-voix, it's de-lovely

The night is tired and so we take

The few hours off to eat wedding cake

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

It feels so fine to be a bride

And how's the groom while he's slightly fried

It's divineful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely

To the pop of champagne off we hop in our plush little plane

Till a bright light through the darkness cosily calls Niagara Falls

Well, my love, our day's complete

What a beautiful bridal suite

It's de-reamy, it's de-rousy, it's de-reverie, it's de-rhapsodie

It's de-regal, it's de-royal, it's de-ritz, it's de-lovely

We settle down as man and wife

To solve the riddle called married life

It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lov
