Will the glass and laid the gemstones on a pool around the evening
[verse 1]
With a glass inlaid with gemstones
[?] her perfume roses wait for her
With the patience of a pack horse loaded for the mountains
On a pool around the evening
Like a stoic noble prince, wait for her
Among the perfumed roses, wait for her
With the patience of a pack horse loaded for the mountains
With seven pillows laid out on the stair
Like a stoic noble prince, wait for her
The scent of [?] incense [?] wait for her
And do not flush the sparrows that are nesting in the [?] wait for her
With seven pillows laid out on the stair
The scent of woman's incense fills the air
And [?] wait for her
Be calm and wait for her
And if she comes late, wait
And do not flush the sparrows that are nesting in her braids
Let her be [?]
All along the barricades, wait for her
A garden in full bloom
Let her breathe in the air that is foreign
[verse 2]
Let her lips part, wait for her
And if she comes soon, wait for her
Take her to the balcony see the moon soaked in milk
And if she comes late, wait
Hear the rustle of [?] wait for her
Let her be still as a summer afternoon
Don't let your eyes [?]
A garden in full bloom
Let her breathe in the air that is foreign to her heart
And if she comes soon, wait for her
Let her lips part, wait for her
And if she comes late, wait
Take her to the balcony, see the moon soaked in milk
Serve her water before wine
Hear the rustle of her silk, wait for her
Do not touch her hand
Don't let your eyes alight upon the twin doves of her breast
Let your fingertips rest as the command
Lest they take flight
Speak softly as a flute would to a fearful violin
Wait for her
Breathe out, breathe in
And if she comes soon, wait for her
And if she comes late, wait, wait
As the echo fades from her [?]
Remember the promises you made
[verse 3]
Serve her water before wine
Do not touch her hand
Let your fingertips rest at her command
Speak softly as a flute would to a fearful violin
Breathe out, breathe in
[outro]
And as the echo fades from her final fusillade
Remember the promises you made
