Salam o' exalted one, Come share a vision with me. Back in time, So it is written, So it came to pass. So shall it be Let the centuries unfold, Like the dance of the seven veils. Before your very eyes In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia A Sultans delight, Gemstones bright On a flight to Arabia In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia Told by queen Scheherazade, Shackled and sold, Into slavery To stay alive, By royal decree That another day of live, Might go free Bewitching with tales, When all else fails, To curb the wrath of a king So read on and believe, Who knows what you'll perceive? What fate Allah may bring In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia A Sultans delight, Gemstones bright On a flight to Arabia In a 1001, 1001 night of Arabia In a Persian market place, Slave girls sell their bodies for a price In the city of sin, That will pacify, Your every vice Salam o' exalted one, Now you've shared a vision with me Precious sights beyond compare, Magic carpets ride the air The back of a genie will take you there, On endless fights On a 1001 nights of Arabia.
