Take me back, Sinbad,
To the land
Of magic,
And peace.
Take me back
To Thebes,
And the Nile.
Take me back
To the beloved
Whose eyes
Are as
Wide as
The blue skies,
And whose hair
Is as
Wild as
The gazelles
Of the Sahara.
Take me back
To the people
Whose hearts
Are as
White as
The snow,
And their smile
Is as
Bright as
Moon light.
Take my emerald.
Take my gold.
Take my horse.
Take my sword.
Take all
That I gained
In my elusive,
Vanity trip,
And then,
Take me back
To my land.
Take my back.
Take me back.
