"The Chinese Nightingale and Other Poems"

>
Men's Leader: The Queen of Sheba came to see King Solomon.

I was King Solomon,
I was King Solomon,
I was King Solomon.

Women's Leader: I was the Queen,
I was the Queen,
I was the Queen.
Both Leaders: We will be king and queen,

Reigning on mountains green,
Happy and free
For ten thousand years.

Both Leaders: King Solomon he had four hundred oxen.
Congregation: We were the oxen.

Both Leaders: You shall feel goads no more.

Walk dreadful roads no more,
Free from your loads
For ten thousand years.

Both Leaders: King Solomon he had four hundred sweethearts.
