Inspiration of Caravanserai

As the tune took form
I strained to hear
The notes, the harmony
My heart was pulled

I can feel the summons
A dancer's call
My heart, my soul
Is aching to follow

The pipes of Pan
Divine music plays forth


The shinning moon lit my way
Home in darkness
A cloudless night

The drums began
A pounding rhythm
Echoing within my soul
Her voice entrancing

To notes like love
Tears rolled down my face

To hear a song that touches your soul
A gift of highest value

My body swayed within my seat
I longed to escape and dance

I could feel the dark breath of desert winds
The dunes were surely all around
Not fields of earth, but hills of sand
Surround me on my journey

My trusty camel, a ruddy beast
Dances forth
Its trail so winding and long

Until I reach home
Where the whole world awaits

I leave my beast
And through the gateway I stride
Into a bazaar of wondrous treasures
I see all with new eyes

I call the musicians to play it once more
That my love may share in my joy
The tune that captures my heart and soul
Wraps around us with a sigh
