Ahmed’s Song of Farewell Lyrics by Harry Burleigh

Saracen Songs

0

Farewell, farewell to all!
Sunlight and twilight, the hour belov'd of Allah
Farewell, farewell the Desert;
Farewell, Life and Love, and thou, Almona!
Never so stately a star
Rode the fair mansions of Heav'n;
Gods gather'd beauties afar
Mine at her dark eyes were giv'n:
Matchless in beauty and grace
Perfect in body and soul
Deserts shall dream of her face
Long as thе ages shall roll
Here in thе heart of the hills
Mark how a Saracen fell!
Love! how it stifles and kills
Ah, my Almona, Farewell!
