Translation
Bilingual
He's a fairy feller
The fairy folk have gathered 'round the new moon shine
To see the feller crack a nut at night's noontime
To swing his axe he swears, as he climbs he dares
To deliver (the master-stroke)
Ploughman, "Waggoner Will," and types
Politician with senatorial pipe, he's a dilly-dally-o
Pedagogue squinting, wears a frown
And a satyr peers under lady's gown
Dirty fellow, what a dirty laddio
Tatterdemalion and a junketer
There's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter
He's my hero (ah-ah)
Fairy dandy tickling the fancy
Of his lady friend
The nymph in yellow (can we see the master-stroke?)
What a quaere fellow
ย
Soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor, ploughboy
Waiting to hear the sound
And the arch-magician presides
He is the leader
Oberon and Titania
Watched by a harridan
Mab is the queen and there's a good apothecary man
Come to say hello
Fairy dandy tickling the fancy
Of his lady friend
The nymph in yellow
What a quaere fellow
The ostler stares with hands on his knees
Come on, Mr. Feller, crack it open if you please
