Wonderful Copenhagen - 1951 - Hans Christian Anderen

James Pitt-Payne, London and Ian Cousins, Opera Australia

I sail up the Skaggerak,
and sail down the Kattegat
Thru the harbour and up to the quay,
And there she stands, waiting for me,
With a welcome so warm and so gay.

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen,
Friendly old girl of a town,
'neath her tavern light, on this merry night
Let us clink and drink one down.
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen,
Salty old queen of the sea.
Once I sailed away,
But I'm home today,
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me.

Wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen,
Friendly old girl of a town,
With her harbour lights
That she wears at night.
Like a golden, golden crown.
To wonderful, wonderful Copenhagen,
Salty old queen of the sea.
Once I sailed away,
But I'm home today,
Singing Copenhagen, wonderful, wonderful
Copenhagen for me.
