The man, he said to them
Today, I saw something so beautiful
A beauty that would always keep my heart youthful
The woman, the woman
She has the stars in her eyes,
That shines peace around her when everything dies
The sun is her tongue
Her radiant wisdom keeps her people young
The sky is her chest
Where great beings rest
She has the sea in her belly
When many anchor at the ferry
Her feet are the earth
She has the power to nurture and give birth
A woman
A woman is she.
Take 2:
Her arms are her wings
Under them children find blessings
Children who grow to be bold warriors
Nurtured by her love, my compassionate daughters
For she has understood
That children are great men with immature minds in small bodies
She knows that there is a king and queen in these babies
She has understood that like Sarah, she is a mother of many nations
In her hands lies the destiny of the whole creation
Her ears can see
Further into my soul
She sees the torment of the people in me
She touches them, desires to make them whole
She is a replica of my heart
An extension of my mind
I though that she was separate from me
But I realised she wasn’t
She thinks as I do
And does before I think
To deliver those who are in torment
To deliver them into my rest
To cover their nakedness with a garment
To feed their hungry souls with the best
My very nature rests in her soul
She is the manifestation of my thoughts and more
Take 3
My friend, my heart has fallen in love with her you see
For she knows her to please me from a far
Her perfume goes ahead of her to bow before my presence
Before I see her I feel her incense
With time and perseverance she prepares herself
Just for this one encounter
She leaves behind her people, her culture
And everything that to her really matters
She lays on my bed
She rest down her head
Nothing to worry about
Satisfied, for with me is never without
Then she gives me the knife
And asks me to take her life
She lays bear
She has nothing to hide
Not her past, not her pride
Not even the pain that eats her inside
Totally naked before me
Totally ready for anything and everything.
She makes me feel so… weak when I am with her
Ask even half of my kingdom and I will give you
But her request weakens me even more
“All I want is you” she whispers
And so I let myself
Totally bare before her
And the rest is between the two of us.
For she has conquered my heart.
(And make sweet love to her) – Not to be read in public! lol
The woman, that woman
She has the stars in her eyes,
That shines peace around her when everything dies
The sun is her tongue
Her radiant wisdom keeps her people young
The sky is her chest
Where great beings rest
She has the sea in her belly
When many anchor at the ferry
Her feet are the earth
She has the power to nurture and give birth
A woman
A woman is she.
