While some dance, the others accompany them by their voices alone. TYROLIENNE. Men. Whilst to joy we sing inviting, With our strains thy steps uniting With thy smiles our pains requiting Lovely maid, our eyes delight. Women. Swift as the flash That mocks the sight Thou seem'st a bird In airy flight. Together. When, home returning, We leave these cool fountains, In our native mountains Thy praise we'll recite. Men. Fresh flowers Washed by showers In Love's bowers, Are less fair and bright. Women. Thy steps so light, Our songs invite; Come, fairy sprite, Our eyes delight. Together. When, home returning, We leave these cool fountains, In our native mountains Thy praise we'll recite. FRAULEIN SCHNEIDER:

Herr Schultz! Can I believe what I see? (HERR SCHULTZ nods proudly) But this is — too much to accept. So rare — so costly — so luxurious.

(She sings) If you bought me diamonds, If you bought me pearls, If you bought me roses like some other gents Might bring to other girls, It couldn't please me more Than the gift I see - (She takes a large pineapple out of the bag) A pineapple for me! SCHULTZ: (Singing) If, in your emotion, You began to sway, Went to get some air, Or grabbed a chair To keep from fainting dead away, It couldn't please me more Than to see you cling To the pineapple I bring. BOTH: Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah (They dance) FRAULEIN SCHNEIDER:

But you must not bring me any more pineapples! Do you hear? It is not proper. It is a gift a young man would present to his lady love. It makes me blush!
