In Wicked Hour I Met My Penance...
In wicked hour I met my penance,
Avoiding you was not my troth -
With one stamp fate has marked us both,
And doomed us both to one death sentence.
And, not resisting ancient powers,
That led us both to one despair,
Our bodies we so meekly bared,
And rite of love performed for hours.
The priest had no faith in death's grace,
The victim wasn't afraid of secret,
And wine has not turned into blood yet
In blasphemous hearts' darkness maze.

We Are Children of Sunny-Red Honey...
We are children of sunny-red honey
And of brown and rusty-red earth -
In the dark we grew through flesh from birth,
And our nature resembles wild fire.
In the star hive for centuries' spread
Like the bees at the loins Aphrodite's,
We keep circling, encrusted with sun dust,
Over flame of the gold flower head.

All I Ever Wanted
Moonlight shines,
With a cool breeze covered in splendor
It's what I wanted.
The sweet smell of incense
Rooms in shades of rare and beautiful colors,
That's what I wanted.
This is my home.
With my father, my mother, my brother
It's so strong and superior.
This is my home.
I have everything here
And I always say it fearlessly
And, in case anyone doubts it,
I tell them they're wrong.
I am the prince of Egypt,
The son of the history that's seen
Anywhere.
I can assure
It's what I wanted...
It's what I wanted...
It's what I wanted...
{Queen Tuya}
This is your home, Moses.
If the river brought is because you are meant to stay.
This is your home.
My love is pure and so forget about the past.
When the gods sent you,
A great blessing came to us.

Heartbeat
Hear my heartbe-e-e-at
I knew you had me, was too stupid and I only blame myself
I didn't know where you had me, why are you only special now?
What we said, we needed to do, it was weakened only by me
Kept you up all night and let you drown
Hear my heartbeat, it beats for you now
I feel your loss, screaming your name, my heart is in pieces
Are you and I okay? Thinking of you now
Thinking of us, like many, many times before
You have wandered in and out, you've said I should go
I've packed my stuff, unpacked again, we've said at least a thousand things
If you're listening shawty, you should know
It's you I have on my mind every second
So if you're listening shawty there is time
It's only you, you should be able to understand that
Hear my heartbeat, it's beating for you now
I feel your loss, screaming your name, my heart is in pieces
Are you and I okay? Thinking of you now
Thinking of us, like many, many times before
You leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, like many, many times before
You leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, like many, many times before
Late nights you've been waiting, waiting like I was expecting
Those were the things that you did, that made me speechless
Without you I'll turn gray
I stopped, the clock is ticking, but my heart it will not beat
Took my wings, now there's no air
I didn't see it blew out, I didn't see the flame blew out
Hear my heartbeat, it's beating for you now (for you now)
I feel your loss, screaming your name, my heart is in pieces
Are you and I okay? Thinking of you now
Thinking of us, like many, many times before
You leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, like many, many times before
(So many times, so many times before so many, many times before)
You leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, you leave, like many, many times before
(So many times, so many times before so many, many times before)
So many times before

Image
Take a look
I'll never be the perfect wife
or perfect daughter
I might have to change myself
I see that
Just by being myself i won't
See the peace reigning in the air
Who is here?
With me and in my being
Is it my image? I can't tell
How will I unveil
Who i am
I'll try
[When the image of who i am
Will reveal itself] 2x
My reflection
Only has one soul

Now I Am Dead. I'm In Book Lines...
Now I am dead. I'm in book lines, not boulders,
Your hands adorn...
The chains of love are taken off your shoulders,
My ashes burn.
I can be flipped through in the times of trouble
From this day on,
Your roads forever will keep through life's rubble
My seal foregone.
I've dug myself a grave, the tomb of my verse,
With rolled up sleeves,
But listen - do you hear singing sky birds?
My verse - it lives!
My tomb's not empty, do not leave confused like
Poor Magdalene...
Just for a single moment touch my lips with
Your lips serene.
