Lyrics

For the servant of God, Alexis
And the servant of God, Hortense
Now affianced together
We beg salvation, O Lord
Dance, Isaiah, dance, Isaiah, Isaiah
Y'assou! Y'assou
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
A lily and a veil
To represent her purity
The lily and the veil to be sure
Ah
Ah
Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?
I'm cured!
Y'assou, y'assou
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Some water from the well
To summon back his innocence
The chalice and the water just for you
Ah
Ah
Canavaro
What?
You're my virgin, too
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Wreaths of roses
And cherries from the tree
To show that she is married
She's absolutely married
She's positively married
She certainly is married as she'll ever be
Y'assou, y'assou
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Confetti we can throw
To represent our happiness
Exchange the rings and drink the wine
Dance, Isaiah, dance, Isaiah, Isaiah
Promise you will never part again
Dance, Isaiah, dance, Isaiah, Isaiah
Canavaro
I promise
Bubulina
I promise (y'assou, y'assou, y'assou)
Amen!
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Amen
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Amen
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Y'assou, y'assou, y'assou
Come, my sweet!
Let me give you the first respectable kiss
You've ever had!
Amen!
