《Saint Cecilia》的歌詞如下:
Cecilia was a musical maid,
Born to play the heavenly flageolet;
She taught the notes to run and glide,
And all the angels she could hymn and sing.
Chorus:
Oh Saint Cecilia, all hail the maid,
Whose music charms the skies above;
Oh let her name be ever blessed,
For music's sake, and praise of endless love.
She taught the notes to run and glide,
And sweetest tunes did sweetest die;
When music breathed from her soul unspent,
All nature loved and joined the choral flight.
Chorus:
Oh Saint Cecilia, all hail the maid,
Whose music charms the skies above;
Oh let her name be ever blessed,
For music's sake, and praise of endless love.
She taught the notes to run and glide,
And as she played, her spirit flew;
She taught the notes to charm the skies above,
And all the angels joined in sweet repose.
Chorus:
Oh Saint Cecilia, all hail the maid,
Whose music charms the skies above;
Oh let her name be ever blessed,
For music's sake, and praise of endless love.
