After HafizA
-
-
A caravan from China comesA
For miles it sweetens all the airB
With fragrant silks and dreaming gumsA
Attar and myrrhC
A caravan from China comesA
-
O merchant tell me what you bringD
With music sweet of camel bellsA
How long have you been travellingD
With these sweet smellsA
O merchant tell me what you bringD
-
A lovely lady is my freightE
A lock escaped of her long hairB
That is this perfume delicateF
That fills the airB
A lovely lady is my freightE
-
Her face is from another landG
I think she is no mortal maidH
Her beauty like some ghostly handG
Makes me afraidH
Her face is from another landG
-
The little moon my cargo isA
About her neck the PleiadesA
Clasp hands and sing Hafiz 't is thisA
Perfumes the breezeA
The little moon my cargo isA
