This Day Aria, Part 1, or Cadence Aria,^[1] is a song that is featured in the episode A Canterlot Wedding - Part 2. It is sung by both Princess Cadance and changeling Queen Chrysalis. As a side note, an Aria is a song sung by one singer, which given Chrysalis is disguised as Cadance (and sharing a voice actress) makes this true in a fashion. According to "The Musical Pony" complete song lyrics in Little, Brown's My Little Pony Friendship is Magic official guidebook My Little Pony: The Elements of Harmony, it is a distinct entity from the reprise Queen Chrysalis sings later in the episode.

This part of the song makes up the tenth track on the Songs of Friendship and Magic soundtrack album under the title This Day Aria, although the lyric booklet incorrectly shows the lyrics of the reprise. It also serves as the fourth track on the My Little Pony 2015 Convention Collection. It is also one of two featured in the second episode of PonyChat. A "DJ Pon-3's Version" cinematic remix of the song, with new vocals, serves as the seventh track on the DJ Pon-3 Presents: The Remixes Vol. 2 remix album.

Splitscreen 3 S02E26 — The fake and the real Princess Cadance.

[Queen Chrysalis]

This day is going to be perfect

The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small

Everypony will gather 'round

Say I look lovely in my gown

What they don't know is that I have fooled them all!

[Princess Cadance]

This day was going to be perfect

The kind of day of which I've dreamed since I was small

But instead of having cake

With all my friends to celebrate

My wedding bells, they may not ring for me at all…

[Queen Chrysalis]

I could care less about the dress

I won't partake in any cake

Vows, well I'll be lying when I say

That through any kind of weather

I'll want us to be together

The truth is I don't care for him at all

No I do not love the groom

In my heart there is no room

But I still want him to be all mine

[Princess Cadance]

We must escape before it's too late

Find a way to save the day

Hope, I'll be lying if I say

"I don't fear that I may lose him

To one who wants to use him

Not care for, love, and cherish him each day"

For I oh so love the groom

All my thoughts he does consume

Oh, Shining Armor, I'll be there very soon

[Queen Chrysalis]

Finally the moment has arrived

For me to be one lucky bride

[Princess Cadance]

Oh, the wedding we won't make

He'll end up marrying a fake

Shining Armor will be...

Queen Chrysalis: ...mine, all mine. [evil laugh]
