Tales of love and confusion - Sing Slow dulcimer
Posted on
Sing slow dulcimer
Sing slow dulcimer,
With your throaty voice
Tell tales of Distant lands.
Lands where the winds tousle the sands
Lands where the sunlight dances like water in the distance.
Sing slow dulcimer,
With your enchanting voice
Tell tales of nightingales
In perfumed trees
Who watch beauty stare
Disconsolately at its surroundings.
The tinkling of fountains jars
And the fragrance of roses cloys.
The boundless gardens of a king’s palace
Are now a walled cage.
Sing slow dulcimer,
With your seducing voice
Tell tales of a lover,
Born like a lily in the mire.
Unaware of its own virtue or beauty
