Letra da Música Arabadrengurinn (inglês) de Björk

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
