Scimitar of Love
Will you please claim a reward? - for heart robbing? A fee?
The thought of your eyebrows steal this heart away from me
Casting golden horseshoes up into the sky
The horse of a Khan steadily gallops by
Your eyelashes pierce deeper than lances through cuirass
Paradisal gardens dream of your cheek’s sweet bloom oh lass
Your reflection in the sparkling ocean invites Angels en mass
On this night even the light of the moon is shy to surpass
Your radiant cheeks the sun, I venture to pray with my lips
If only the sun were never obscured nor suffered any eclipse
Hips sugared through kisses from coral mouth
Bring only the wine which is melted ruby in its cup
Love’s scimitar unsheathes - the sun’s brightness held up
It’s from الله
