I had a dream that I was in Baghdad
the dream is a great empire
they were taking care of me like I'm Scheherazade
until you took me away.
The ducats, pearls, nor Sultans
aren't as powerful as you are
nor the torches, nor the yatagans
are as dangerous as the look in your eyes
Ali, Ali, Ali Baba
hey, were you a hero
or nothing but a savage
Help! He was cheating1 on me day and night.
Ali, Ali, Ali Baba
hey, were you a hero
or nothing but a savage
Alili oh how much we kissed
Why did they wake me up...
Days are passing by like estate cars
The stars are falling
My tears like Bedouins
Still on a quest for you.
The ducats, pearls..
1. "Varati" can mean both "to cheat on someone" and "to trick someone", I'm not 100% sure which of the two is the case here
