The choir walked onto the stage,
The men of the Treorchy Male Choir.
Dinner jackets, white shirts and bow ties
Worn by them all.
The pianist was introduced,
And then the conductor strode on.
The piano struck some notes
And this glorious sound came,
The enchanting voices shone,
Shone a light of beauty on me.
Such a wonderful sound
That took me away into a new world,
A new world of such enjoyment.
The basses, baritones and tenors singing,
Singing in beautiful harmony
Bringing such joy to me,
And bringing joy to everyone,
Everyone in that packed theatre,
Not a spare seat to be seen.
The choir sang their hearts out
And at the end we applauded,
Stood and applauded,
Such a brilliant evening was over.
We went home
And the songs they sung repeated,
Repeated in my mind all night,
A night to be forever remembered.
