A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love,
More beautiful than every form of beauty, you are, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love.

They say where the sun cannot reach, poets find their way, they say,
They say where the sun cannot reach, poets find their way, they say,
Even the shadow of your form, neither sun nor poet can touch,
If I try to touch you, you'll fly away, with wings of angels, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, hum.
I will become a song, from your honeyed lips,
I will become a song, from your honeyed lips,
With flowers of melody, I'll adorn your dreams' bed,
When you come riding in a palanquin to your beloved's home, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love.

It feels as if all the stars have broken, shattered and embraced,
Have clung to your fair moon-hued body, entwined,
Becoming nose rings, bangles, waistbands, bells, earrings, and a crown, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love,
A dancer, cool, pristine, tender, goddess of music, your voice, my love.
