The refrain runs: "Oh, what a beautiful mornin'! / Oh, what a beautiful day! / I've got a beautiful feelin' / Ev'rythin's goin' my way." Curly's "brimming optimism is perfectly captured by Rodgers' ebullient music and Hammerstein's buoyant pastoral lyrics."

Curly's "brimming optimism is perfectly captured by Rodgers' ebullient music and Hammerstein's buoyant pastoral lyrics." This was the first song of Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical collaboration to be heard by theatre audiences. It has become one of their most famous numbers and "quickly became one of the most popular American songs to emerge from the wartime era, gaining currency away from Broadway first on the radio and recordings, and then later on numerous television variety shows." Brooks Atkinson, reviewing the original production in The New York Times, wrote that the number changed the history of musical theatre: "After a verse like that, sung to a buoyant melody, the banalities of the old musical stage became intolerable."

  • «Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin'» (с англ. — «О, какое прекрасное утро» или «О, что за день благодатный») — популярная песня из мюзикла «Оклахома!», написанная в 1943 году либреттистом Оскаром Хаммерстайном на музыку композитора Ричарда Роджерса. В начале мюзикла её исполняет главный герой истории — ковбой Кёрли Маклейн.Это первая совместная работа Хаммерстайна и Роджерса. Как и в случае со многими другими их песнями, в мюзикле Oh, What a Beautiful Mornin' начинается за сценой и без музыкального аккомпанемента. При написании текста для этой песни Хаммерстайн старался передать чувство, возникающее при чтении первых строк пьесы (англ. Lynn Riggs) «Зеленеют сирени», по мотивам которой был создан мюзикл «Оклахома!». Вместе с тем он старался сделать поэтический текст более примитивным, подходящим ковбоя. Пьеса Риггса также начинается с пения главного героя, исполняющего известную балладу «». (ru)
