Lovely Maria
Words and Music: Norair-Hovig Sarkissian
Out in the jungle the beasts know her name,
And in her presence they're so mild and tame.
The mighty lions lie down to her,
Racing each other to get close to her.
She casts her spell no matter where she goes,
Why she is blessed like this, nobody knows.
The birds start singing when they see her in the morning,
For her the rooster always crows.
Deep in the ocean the fish know her face,
They smile when they recall her gentle grace.
They wait till summer to swim around her feet,
'Cause somehow she just turns the water sweet.
She knows her secret but she doesn't tell.
She know her powers but she hides them well.
And when they see her boys bump into each other,
I know 'cause once I slipped and fell.
There is a girl who lives in Aegion by the water,
She is the princess whose smile lights up this world.
And if you saw her on the street you wouldn't know her,
You'd think that she is just an ordinary girl.
Princess Maria, she is the one,
Lovely Maria, bright as the sun.
And then one day she walked right through my door,
That pretty little girl that I adore.
One look at her and my whole world just froze,
Seeing such beauty from head to toes.
Lovely Maria will you ever know
How since that day you've set my heart aglow?
You've ruled my world with just one wave of your soft hand,
And now your wish is my command.
There is a girl who lives in Aegion by the water,
She is the princess whose smile lights up this world.
And if you saw her on the street you wouldn't know her,
You'd think that she is just an ordinary girl.
Princess Maria, she is the one,
Lovely Maria, bright as the sun.
