Last night my dreams were vivid
The sky was emerald green
And in ancient Persopolis
You danced a smiling queen.
Your gown of vibrant colors
Swirled through the splendid walls
And round a hundred columns high
You danced in palace halls.
Each man who saw your movement
Was captured by your grace
A legion fell at your command
You danced to my embrace.
Your dreamy eyes entrapped me
Your kiss made me obey
And as the stars spun round our heads
You danced the night away.
