Lea Salonga, Beth Fowler, Marnie Nixon, Chorus - Mulan, Disney - Honor To Us All

Текст песни

This is what you give me to work with?
Well, honey, I’ve seen worse
We’re gonna turn this sow’s ear
Into a silk purse
We’ll have you washed and dried
Primped and polished till you glow with pride
Trust my recipe for instant bride
You’ll bring honor to us all
Wait and see, when we’re through
Boys will gladly go to war for you
With good fortune (and a great hair-do)
You’ll bring honor to us all
A girl can bring her family
Great honor in one way
By striking a good match
And this could be the day
Men want girls with good taste, calm, obedient
Who work fast-paced
With good breeding and a tiny waste
You’ll bring honor to us all
We all must serve our emperor
Who guards us from the huns
The men by bearing arms
A girl by bearing sons
When we’re through, you can’t fail
Like a lotus blossom soft and pale
How could any fellow say no sale?
You’ll bring honor to us all
You’ll bring honor to us all
You’ll bring honor to us all
There, you’re ready
Not yet!
An apple for serenity, a pendant for balance
Beads of jade for beauty
You must proudly show it
Now, add a cricket just for luck
And even you can’t blow it!
Ancestors, hear my plea
Help me not to make a fool of me
And to not uproot my family tree
Keep my father standing tall
Steadier than the undertaker
We are meeting our matchmaker!
Destiny, guard our girls
And our future as it fast unfurls
Please look kindly on these cultured pearls
Each a perfect porcelian doll
Please bring honor to us
Please bring honor to us
Please bring honor to us
Please bring honor to us
Please bring honor to us all!
