Sonata de La Luna de Marrakesh

I met you at night in the city of the white oleander,
On the sleepy street where men bite the flowers
I sang to the devil with the barbuka by the wall
You walked like a cat through the Marrakesh medina.
You were so colorful and I was so crazy in the early morning
Searching among the shadows for the melody of memories
In that tavern where the moon was just a dream:
The dream that your mouth against my mouth brought to life.
Oh like a star, oh fell from the sky, oh with two words:
Habibi. I love you.
And all the sea inside of you. And all the sea outside of me.
Whoever is in a hurry dies, sings the moon through the desert
I learned it from your mouth on a night cloudy with kisses
Searching in the Medina for the heart of the white oleander
On the sleepy street where I found your eyes.
Oh like a star, oh fell from the sky, oh with two words:
Habibi, I love you.
And all the sea inside of you and all the sea outside of me.
