"Stranger in Paradise" is a popular song from the musical Kismet (1953), credited to Robert Wright and George Forrest. Like almost all the music in that show, the melody was taken from music composed by Alexander Borodin (1833–1887), in this case, the "Gliding Dance of the Maidens", from the Polovtsian Dances in the opera Prince Igor (1890). The song in the musical is a lovers' duet and describes the transcendent feelings that love brings to their surroundings. Later versions were mostly edited to be sung by male solo artists.

  • 「ストレンジャー・イン・パラダイス」(Stranger in Paradise)は、ロバート・ライトとジョージ・フォレストが制作したポピュラーソングで、1953年のミュージカル『キスメット』 (Kismet) の挿入歌として発表された。そのショーのすべての楽曲と同じように、アレクサンドル・ボロディンのオペラ『イーゴリ公』の「ダッタン人の踊り」からメロディーを流用している。 ミュージカルでは恋人たちのデュエットで、超越的な愛の周囲にもたらす感情を表現する。 (ja)
  • "Stranger in Paradise" ("Extraño en el paraíso") es una canción popular que pertenece al musical de 1953 , cuyos créditos son de Robert Wright y George Forrest. Como sucedía con toda la música de aquel espectáculo, la melodía realmente fue compuesta por Alexander Borodin, en este caso, de las Danzas polovtsianas. Trece años antes, en 1940, la grabación de Artie Shaw de "My Fantasy" (acreditada a los compositores Whiteman-Meskitt-Edwards) era virtualmente idéntica a "Stranger In Paradise".[cita requerida] (es)
