Similau    (1949)

I similau, I similau
I similau, I similau

Spirit in the wood beat the hollow cane
Spirit in the wood take away the pain
Make the body ripe and alive again
I similau
(I similau, I similau)

Spirit in the heart make the blood flow fast
Spirit in the heart make the beauty last
Keep the hope alive when the youth go past
I similau
(I similau, I similau)

When my lover comes upon the scene
Drop a petal from the tree
Fling the mountain up into the sky
Fill the river with the sea

Spirit in the wood let the hollow cane
Echo in the afterglow
Waiting for the flame to burn again
I similau
(I similau, I similau)

Lyrics by Arden Clar and Harry Coleman.
Recorded by Gene Krupa and His Orchestra; Peggy Lee.
