Arabadrengurinn (inglês) 歌詞

The arabian boy It was in the nighttrain in cairo Where i found an arabian boy Whom since then never left my thoughts I love him He told me stories from his dromedary And sang of water in oasis and rivers He drew me pictures with magical lines I love him There was spring and sun The next day i left to look for him We went down the nile We didn't need a car, just a dromedary He went and showed me the pyramids Right by edge of sahara sands And his eyes lit up by the white stones I love him By the nile's bank we walked and sang About lifes joy, beauty and love I felt inspired by other foreign tongues I love him There was spring and sun Birds sung in choir when i found him We went down the nile We didn't need a car, just a dromedary He left me with tears in his eyes On the railway station that day Although love burned hot in my nerves I knew i would never see him again I often dream of my fair boy And life is sweet when i'm close to him He has grown, as the years have passed I love him Here back in iceland i cried in lonliness And searched for marks to remind me of him I see his face in sticks and stones I love him
