Reply #47: From the Mikado

The threatened cloud has passed away,
And brightly shines the dawning day;
What though the night may come too soon,
There's yet a month of afternoon!
Then let the throng
Our joy advance advance,
With laughing song
And merry dance,

With joyous shout and ringing cheer,
Inaugurate, inaugurate their brief career!
With joyous shout and ringing cheer,
Inaugurate their brief career!
With joyous, joyous shout!
Inaugurate their brief career!



Not totally about sunshine, and even then in a more metaphorical sense, but perhaps a step above 'The sun has got his hat on, hi hi hi hooray'.
