| The youth obedient instant hied | A |
| When fruits luxuriant met his sight | A |
| The white were pearls in snowy pride | A |
| Diamonds the clear of brilliant light | A |
| For red the rubies dazzling blazed | A |
| Whereof Aladdin gathered store | D |
| Then on the lamp in rapture gazed | A |
| And from its niche the treasure bore | D |
| - | |
| - | |
| Regained his home he seized anon | B |
| The lamp and cried straight bring me food | A |
| The Genii instantly was gone | B |
| But soon again before him stood | A |
| The youth his fear struck mother bore | D |
| As plates of silver met his view | E |
| Of viands choice containing store | D |
| And cups with wine of rosy hue | E |

| In gorgeous robes the youth arrayed | A |
| Vaulted anon his prancing steed | A |

| O erwhelmed with grief Aladdin prayed | A |
| Once more the Genii life would spare | F |

| The youth through airy realms above | G |
| Who lighted safe on Afric s shore | D |
| And gained the chamber of his love | G |

| And tore from vest the lamps his prey | C |
| The Princess with a panting heart | A |
| Flew to receive affection s kiss | I |
| Thus met they never more to part | A |
| From that hour sealed their lasting blis | I |
