Those Wonderful Portuguese Dancers

Those wonderful Portuguese dancers to the music of the Portuguese band dance and sway
In Warrnambool in Park Lake Pertobe on beautiful Portuguese Day
Some of them well beyond their twenties and showing their Seasons in gray
Compared to their's my legs seem leaden as if they are moulded to clay.

On the very last day of Summer the weather is breezy and bright
It sure is a pleasure to watch them dancing in the evening sunlight
They dance not for money but pleasure dance is such a marvelous thing
Just watching them is so enjoyable their praises i feel glad to sing.

The Portuguese music so lively it floats in the Lake Pertobe air
The Portuguese musicians outstanding the Portuguese dancers have flair
So much beauty in their every movement each dance ends to a lusty cheer
For the enjoyment of their audience they have traveled miles to reach here.

Those wonderful Portuguese dancers for them let us hear the hooray
In these simple lines i do thank them for bringing such joy to my day
Dancing to lively Portuguese music a beauty lovely to behold
The descendants of great musicians and dancers their's is a beauty that never grows old.
