Where the Princes ride at noon | B |
'Mid the verdurous vales and thickets | C |
Under the ghost of the moon | B |
And so dark is that vaulted purple | D |
Flowers in the forest rise | E |
And toss into blossom 'gainst the phantom stars | F |
Pale in the noonday skies | E |

Sweet is the music of Arabia | A |
In my heart when out of dreams | G |
I still in the thin clear mirk of dawn | H |
Descry her gliding streams | G |
Hear her strange lutes on the green banks | I |
Ring loud with the grief and delight | J |
Of the dim silked dark haired Musicians | K |
In the brooding silence of night | J |

They haunt me her lutes and her forests | L |
No beauty on earth I see | M |
But shadowed with that dream recalls | N |
Her loveliness to me | M |
Still eyes look coldly upon me | M |
Cold voices whisper and say | O |
'He is crazed with the spell of far Arabia | A |
They have stolen his wits away ' | - |
