O loveliness, O beauty
Your eyes in their blissful suppleness,
Your gazelle elegance meets the heavens. 
I am leaf in the rustle of your wind.. 

A face in my dreams turns, 
Soft and dearer than the silky 
linens of Agadez. Your arms, lips, 
Bear lyrics of savannah nights 
Blowing deep in our longings.

O love, your eyes 
And their golden waves and light 
Hold the regal splendour of Venus
Cooling the Sahara sun, soft as lights of dawn.
I am light in the refreshing break of your dawn.
