Oh, Uncle of our bride-to-be,
Hearken to our plea, or face the fury!
Glory to you, glory, Uncle!
Oh Uncle, Uncle, give your niece to me!
Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle,
Give your niece, Uncle, Uncle!
No, no, no, don't sever, bind us instead,
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
Uncle, Uncle, give your niece to me!
Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle!
No theft, no raid, I've committed none,
But offered love, true and begun.
Since first I saw her radiant face,
In love's embrace, I lost all grace.
Don't break my heart, forsake this stubborn plea,
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
Uncle, Uncle, give your niece to me!
Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle!
Weeping days and nights that burn,
Where to go, my heart will turn?
If she's not mine, I'll fade and die,
Before I go, your name I'll cry!
Don't break my heart, forsake this stubborn plea,
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
Oh Uncle, Uncle, give your niece to me!
Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, Uncle, dear!
Dear Uncle, Uncle!
The village will be stunned, the wedding I'll bring,
In a palanquin she'll ride, as the joyous bells swing.
With my bride I will leave, no, no, don't depart,
Bind us together, say yes with all your heart.
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
Uncle, Uncle,
Give your niece to me, Uncle, Uncle!
Uncle, Uncle, dear, dear Uncle, Uncle,
Uncle, Uncle, dear, dear Uncle, Uncle,
Uncle, Uncle, dear, dear Uncle, Uncle,
Uncle, Uncle, dear, dear Uncle, Uncle!
