"Golden Arrow " is popular song published both as an intermezzo two-step and a ballad in 1909. The music was composed by Egbert Van Alstyne, with lyrics added by Harry Williams. The ballad is a love story between the unnamed son of a Chief Arrow-Bow and a maiden named Golden Arrow, both of the Sioux nation in Idaho. ==Lyrics== The lyrics as written by Williams:〔Williams, "Golden Arrow" (Sheet music).〕 :''Out in the shade of a glade sat a maid,'' :''With burning cheeks all aglow;'' :''Eyes black as night, but as bright as the light of any sunset in Idaho:'' :''For by her side was the pride of a tribe, the son of Chief Arrow-Bow'' :''And in the ear of his dear, sweet and clear, he whispered low.'' :''Chorus:'' ::''"My little Golden Arrow I love you'' ::''You've pierced my heart it's true, pretty Sioux, through and through,'' ::''Take me to be your fallen sparrow, do—'' ::''For Golden Arrow my life belongs to you."'' ::''(repeat)'' :''She then replied "I'm your bride by your side,'' :''We'll hunt the big buffalo,'' :''I'll be your dear, never fear, ever near,'' :''For I'm your Arrow and you're my 'beau'.'' :''You lead the way where you may from today, for you must guide me, you know."'' :''"Then I can see we'll agree, come with me," said Arrow-Bow.'' :''(Chorus)'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Golden Arrow (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
