Edelweiss, Edelweiss, 
Every morning you greet me, 
Small and white, 
Clean and bright, 
You look happy to meet me 
Blossoms of snow may bloom and grow, 
Bloom and grow forever, 
Edelweiss Edelweiss, 
Bless my home land forever.

The hills are alive with the sound of music, 
The songs they have sung for a thousand years, 
The hills fill my heart with the sound of music, 
My heart wants to sing every song it hears, 
My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds, 
That rise from the lake to the trees, 
My heart want to sign like the chimes, 
That flies from a church on a breeze, 
To laugh like a brook when it strips, 
And fals over stone on its way, 
To sing through the night, 
Like a lark who is learning to prey I'll go to the hills, 
when my heart is lonely I know I will hear what I've heard before, 
My heart will be blessed with the sound of music, 
And I'll sing once more.

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, 
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens,
Brown paper packages tied up with strings, 
These are a few of my favorite things, 
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels, 
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles, 
Wild geese that fly with teh moon on their wings, 
These are a few of my favorite things Girls in 
white dresse with blue satin sashes, 
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes, 
Silver white winters that melt into springs, 
These are a few of my favorite things, 
When the dog bites, 
When the bee stings, 
When I am feeling sad I simply remeber my favorite things, 
And then I don't feel so bad.

Climb every mountain, 
Search high and low, 
Follow every byway, every patch you know, 
Climb every mountain, ford every stream, 
Follow every rainbow, till you find your dream, 
A dream that will need all the love you can give, 
Every day of your life for as long as you live, 
Climb every mountain, ford every stream, 
Follow every rainbow, till you find your dream. 

What will this day be like? 
I wonder 
What will my future be? 
I wonder 
It could be so exiting, 
To be out in the world, 
To be free 
My heart should be wildly rejoicing 
Oh, what's the matter with me? 
I've always longed for adverture, 
To do the things I've never dared 
Now here I'm facing adventure 
Then why am I so scared? 
A captain with seven children.. 
What's so fearsome about that? 
Oh, I must stop these doubts, 
All these worries 
If I don't I just know I'll turn back I must dream 
of the things I am seeking I am seeking the courage I lack. 
The courage to serve them with reliance 
Face my mistakes without difiance 
Show them I'm worthy 
And while I show them I'll show me! 
So, let them bring on all their problems, 
I'll do better than my best I have confidence 
They'll put me to the test! 
But I'll make them see I have confidence in me 
Somehow I will impress them I will be firm but kind 
And all those children 
Heaven bless them 
They will look up to me 
And mind me 
With each step I am more certain 
Everything will turn out fine I have confidence, 
The world can all be mine 
They'll have to agree I have confidence in me 
I have confidence in sunshine I have confidence in rain 
I have confidence that spring will come again 
Besides, wich you see I have confidence in me 
Strength doesn't lie in numbers 
Strength doesn't lie in wealth, 
Strength lies in night of peaceful slumbers, 
When you wake up, wake up! It's healthy 
All I trust I leave my heart to 
All I trust becomes my own! 
I have confidence in confidence alone.
I have confidence in confidence alone 
Besides wich you see, 
I have confidence in me! 

You wait, little girl, on an empty stage, for fate to turn the light on. 
Your life, little girl, is an empty page that men will want to write on. 
to write on...... 
You are sixteen going on seventeen 
Baby, it's time to think 
Better beware, be canny and careful 
Baby, you're on the brink 
You are sixteen going on seventeen 
Fellows will fall in line 
Eager young lads and roues and cads 
Offer you food and wine 
Totally unprepared are you to face a world of men 
Timid and shy and scared are you 
Of things beyond your kin You'll need someone older and wiser 
Telling you what to do I am seventeen going on eighteen 
I'll take care of you I am sixteen going seventeen I know that I'm naive 
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet 
And willingly I believe I am sixteen going on seventeen 
Innocent as a rose 
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies 
What do I know of those? 
Totally unprepared am I to face a world of men 
Timid and shy and scared am I 
Of things beyond my kin I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do 
You are seventeen going on eighteen I'll depend on you!

High on a hill was a lonely goatherd

Men in the midst of a table d'hote heard 
Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo 
Men drinking beer with the foam afloat heard

One girl in a pale pink coat heard

Hoo! 

She climbs a tree 
And scrapes her knee 
Her dress has got a tear 
She waltzes on her way to mass and whistles on the stair 
And underneath her wimple 
She has curlers in her hair 
Maria's not an asset to the abbey 
She's always late for chapel 
But her penitence is real 
She's always late for everything, 
Except for every meal Mother Abbess From all of wich, I take it, 
That you firmly feel 
Maria's not an asset to the abbey! 
I'd like to say a word on her behalf. 
Maria makes me laugh! 
How do you solve a problem like Maria? 
How do you catch a cloud and bring it down? 
How do you find a word that means Maria? 
A flibberti gibbet! 
A willo' the wisp! 
A clown! 
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her, 
many a thing she ought to understand 
But how do you make her stay and listen to all you say 
How do you keep a wave upon the sand? 
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria? 
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand? 
When I'm dazed and confused, 
out of focus and bemused, 
and I never know exactly where 
I am Unpredictable as weather, 
she's as flightly as a feather 
She's a darling 
She's a demon 
She's a lamb 
Se'd out-pester any pest, 
drive a hornet from his nest 
She could throw a whirling dervish out of whirl 
She is gentle, she is wild She's a riddle 
She's a child 
She's a headache! 
She's an angel 
She's a girl 
How do you solve a problem like Maria? 
How do you catch a clown and pin it down? 
How can you find a word that means Maria? 
A flibberti gibbet! 
A willo' the wisp! 
A clown! 
Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her 
Many a thing she ought to understand 
But how do you make her stay 
And kisten to all you say? 
How do you keep a wave upon the sand? 
Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria? 
How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

Perhaps I had a wicked childhood, 
perhaps I had a mis'rable past. 
There must've been a moment of truth. 
For her you are, standing there, loving me. 
Whether or not you should. 
So, somewhere in my youth or childhood, 
I must have done something good. 
Nothing comes from nothing 
Nothing ever could 
So somewhere in my youth or childhood 
I must have done something good. 
Ho here you are standing there loving me 
Whether or not you should 
So, somewhere in my youth or childhood 
I must have done something good. 
Nothing comes from nothing 
Nothing ever could 
So somewhere in my youth........ 
Or childhood Maria I must have something....... 
Something good.
