Forget you?
How could I forget you, sweetheart,
If you are already painted
Within my eyes,
Like a queen,
And planted in my heart
Like a sacred lotus tree?
Forget you?
How could I forget you, sweetheart,
If your smile beams within
The rays of the sun,
And your voice flows above
The murmurs of the rivers,
And the whispers of the seas?
Forget you?
How could I forget you, sweetheart,
If I pronounce your name
When I speak
To the girls,
To the bulbuls,
To the trees?
Forget you?
How could I forget you, sweetheart,
If your face is painted in my memory
Like a tattoo,
And your love,
Runs like the river Nile
Within my heart, and my soul?
