Slow the love,
slow the intoxication
Yes slow the love
and slow the intoxication
in abundance tonight
the red wine flows
slow and slow thy glance do bring
Towards my heart-the holiest of places

Drunk have I,
from the goblet rusted, .
red wine of your love that floweth.
When in flamboyance
thou enter the city of love,
unveil thy love,
to this thy princess
in the Garden of Eden’s Paradise,
sans ambulations and rituals.
Slow the love
slow the intoxication.

Traversed have I,
deserts of solitude
oasis of honey my embrace,
In taverns of yore
For the old woman’s blessings
In her hands I seek,
the knowledge
of the vedas unveiled,
to ask for advice
for lost I say
is my heart
to this pilgrim unkown

Seek,
oh let me seek
thy glance,
a bit of it
Anoint me
with the musk of the oil
That flows
from the depths of your heart,
In poems
and in sweet verses,
where thou shall sing
to my heart of gold.
With magic of love
from underneath.
