Mi-ya Sa-ma by Gilbert and Sullivan Lyrics

[Chorus]
Miya sama, miya sama
On n'm-ma no mayé ni
Pira-Pira suru no wa
Nan gia na
Toko tonyaré tonyaré na?

Miya sama, miya sama
On n'm-ma no mayé ni
Pira-Pira suru no wa
Nan gia na
Toko tonyaré tonyaré na?

[MIKADO]
From every kind of man
Obedience I expect;
I'm the Emperor of Japan —

[KATISHA]
And I'm his daughter-in-law elect!
He'll marry his son
(He's only got one)
To his daughter-in-law elect!
[MIKADO]
My morals have been declared
Particularly correct;

[KATISHA]
But they're nothing at all, compared
With those of his daughter-in-law elect!
Bow — Bow —
To his daughter-in-law elect!

[Chorus]
Bow — Bow —
To his daughter-in-law elect!

[MIKADO]
In a fatherly kind of way
I govern each tribe and sect
All cheerfully own my sway —

[KATISHA]
Except his daughter-in-law elect!
As tough as a bone
With a will of her own
Is his daughter-in-law elect!

[MIKADO]
My nature is love and light —
My freedom from all defect —
[KATISHA]
Is insignificant quite
Compared with his daughter-in-law elect!
Bow — Bow —
To his daughter-in-law elect!

[Chorus]
Bow — Bow —
To his daughter-in-law elect!
