"The Merry Widow Waltz" was song in the The Merry Widow (German: Die lustige Witwe) an operetta by the Austro-Hungarian composer Franz Lehár. In its English adaptation by Basil Hood, with lyrics by Adrian Ross, The Merry Widow became a sensation at Daly's Theatre in London, opening on 8 June 1907. The first American production opened on 21 October 1907 at the New Amsterdam Theatre on Broadway for another very successful run of 416 performances, and was reproduced by multiple touring companies across the US, all using the Hood/Ross libretto. The "Merry Widow" versions of "Pink Pajamas" song fit the opening stanzas of the Waltz.
