doyly carte opera company - hush hush! not a word lyrics
(enter king, frederic and ruth)
recitative, chorus and solo: hush, hush! not a word
frederic: hush, hush! not a word; i see a light inside!
the major-gen’ral comes, so quickly hide!
pirates: yes, yes, the major-general comes! (exeunt
king, frederic, samuel, and ruth)
police: yes, yes, the major-general comes!
general: (entering in dressing-gown, carrying a light)
yes, yes, the major-general comes!
tormented with the anguish dread
of falsehood unatoned,
i lay upon my sleepless bed,
and tossed and turned and groaned.
the man who finds his conscience ache
no peace at all enjoys;
and as i lay in bed awake,
i thought i heard a noise.
men: he thought he heard a noise– ha! ha!
general: no, all is still
in dale, on hill;
my mind is set at ease–
so still the scene,
it must have been
the sighing of the breeze.
