I met her by chance Standing in the middle of destiny Governing all eyes who passed, All who could not adress her.
The solitary star she was With her own kind of light That goes on fiery,
It runs from the night And lends beauty to day, Like the blaze of a dark Star, Birth of a second life, Ebony girl, I rip myself from the serpent's tooth, I awaken from a thousand days Of forever and she brings Me forth from oblivion, I utter one word between my lips,
Ebony
The word of nocturnal beauty, I wish to plant the seeds so Loving, so caressing, They grow inside her heart, I bequeath it all, Should it all be just a dream, Running or flying, She flanks the reality And pours her own brand Of living waters,
Ebony girl, Your lightning sweet and tremendous, You give my clouds wind, Warm me and hold me Closer to the fire Of your chest.
