1. Your eyes spoke to me in seven languages
Poetry falls short of the eyes' discourse

2. Like the dawn rising over the deserts
Like magic in languid clouds

3. Like horses from the rising sun charged
To raid fortresses or gallop in robes

4. What arrow by a glance from you would not
Vanquish Alexander the Great's army legions?

5. So come, tear my woeful face asunder
Trouble my stillness, break my fetters

6. Rouse me - waking I tire of sleepy calm
My heart dies in repose's oblivion

7. Set me free in a world that holds no path
Except the road of raving madness

8. Distant shores that kept you from me
Exhausted me, and wrecked my ship

9. Lost me, and hid my path from me
Scattered me, raving in assumptions

10. I came willingly, surrendered my affair
Life means nothing if you do not shelter me

11. My steps are tired - forgive my bold request
To your wings - give me shade, let me in

12. You are my destined fate, now that
However you wish, you must decide
