John Wilbye - The Lady Oriana Lyrics

Lyrics The Lady Oriana - John Wilbye



The lady Oriana
Was dight all in the treasures of Guiana.
And on her Grace a thousand Graces tended.
And thus sang they Fair Queen of peace and plenty
The fairest Queen of twenty.
Then with an olive wreath for peace renowned,
Her virgin head they crowned.
Which ceremony ended
Unto her Grace the thousand Graces bended.
Then sang the shepherds and nymphs of Diana:
Long live fair Oriana.
