Observation of an encounter with the Goddess
Suliman the trader was counting out his gold
As the last rays of the sun came down the Nile
He counted in feluccas weary from the day
Until a caller kept him for a while
She raised her eyes and held him underneath her spell
Wisdom on her tongue and truth to tell
Isis is my name he heard her say
And I've been here forever and a day
And in your arms I'll leave a heart of gold
And silver secrets roll from my lips to your desires
And in your eyes you'll see a part of me
You never knew could be until I set you free
If only for a while, if only for a while
The coffers all lie empty home only to the wind
The coins lie buried deep within the silt
He raised his eyes beheld her with wings around the sun
Wisdom on her rays and truth to come
Isis is my name he heard her say
And I've been here forever and a day
And in your arms I'll leave a heart of gold
And silver secrets roll from my lips to your desires
And in your eyes you'll see a part of me
You never knew could be until I set you free
If only for a while, if only for a while
Isis is my name he heard her say
And I've been here forever and a day
And in your arms I'll leave a heart of gold
And silver secrets roll from my lips to your desires
And in your eyes you'll see a part of me
Tou never knew could be until I set you free
If only for a while
She rides the sky on her wings of fire, she rides...
