[00:29.88]Will a glass inlaid with gemstones on a pool around the evening
[00:37.36]Among the perfumed roses wait for her
[00:44.86]With the patience of a pack horse loaded for the mountains
[00:52.24]Like a stoic noble prince wait for her
[00:59.11]With seven pillows laid out on the stair
[01:03.81]The scent of
[01:05.48]Incense fills the air
[01:09.43]Be calm and wait for her
[01:15.04]And do not flush the sparrows that are nesting in her braids
[01:22.34]All along the barricades wait for her
[01:31.85]And if she comes soon wait for her
[01:46.89]And if she comes late wait
[02:00.77]Let her be still as a summer afternoon
[02:07.56]A garden in full bloom
[02:14.34]Let her breathe in the air that is foreign to her heart
[02:23.21]Let her lips part wait for her
[02:30.20]Take her to the balcony see the moon soaked in milk
[02:37.30]Hear the rustle of her silk wait for her
[02:45.02]Don't let your eyes alight upon the twin doves of her breast
[02:53.12]Lest they take flight
[02:55.69]Wait for her
[03:02.01]And if she comes soon wait for her
[03:16.90]And if she comes late wait wait
[03:29.28]Serve her water before wine
[03:34.00]Do not touch her hand
[03:37.29]Let your fingertips rest at her command
[03:44.66]Speak softly as a flute would to a fearful violin
[03:52.18]Breathe out breathe in
[04:30.09]And as the echo fades from her final fusillade
[04:37.62]Remember the promises you made
