[Nellie and kids:]
Dites-moi
Pourquoi
La vie est belle
Dies-moi
Pourquoi
[Emile:]
La vie est gai
Dites-moi
Pourquoi
Chere Mad'moiselle
Est-ce que
Parce que
Vous m'aimez?
[Nellie:]
Born on the opposite sides of the sea
We are as diff'rent as people can be
[Emile:]
It's true
[Nellie:]
And yet you want to marry me
[Emile:]
I do!
[Nellie:]
I've known a few short weeks and yet
Somehow you made my heart forget
All other men I have ever met of view, but you
[Emile:]
Some enchanted evening
When you find your true love
When you feel her call you
Across a crowded room
Then fly to her side
And make her your own
For all through your life you
May dream all alone
[Nellie:]
Once you have found her
Never let her go
[Emile:]
Once you have found her
Never let her go!
