The King was in the counting house, counting out his coin
I was in the parlor and I was writing poems
Miranda flew into the room, she was in a rage
I dropped my pen and spilled some ink on a very lovely page
Happiness, happiness, where can it be?
For my blithe wife, my blithe wife, my blithe wife and me
The Duke was in the corridor, listening for a snore
The Queen was in the upstairs room, always wanting more
Miranda took the page from me and threw it in the fire
I gazed into her eyes of blue, and sang until I tired
Happiness, happiness, will come again
Like and old friend, an old friend, coming round the bend
