The sultry noon's repose | B |
From out her dreams as soft she lies | C |
A faint thin music flows | B |

Her lovely hands lie narrow and pale | D |
With gilded nails her head | E |
Couched in its banded nets of gold | F |

The little Nubian boys who fan | G |
Her cheeks and tresses clear | H |
Wonderful wonderful wonderful voices | I |
Seem afar to hear | J |

The courts of the lord Pthamasar | J |
Where the sweet birds of Psuthys are | J |

And those of earth about her porch | L |
Of shadow cool and grey | J |
Their sidelong beaks in silence lean | M |
And silent flit away | J |
