Salam o exalted one, come share a vision with me. Back in time, for it is written, so it came to pass. So shall it be Let the centuries unfold, like the dance of the seven veils. Before your very eyes In a 1001, 1001 nights of Arabia In a 1001, 1001 nights of Arabia A Sultan's delight, gemstones bright On a flight to Arabia In a 1001, 1001 nights of Arabia Told by queen Scheherazade, shackled and sold, into slavery To stay alive, by royal decree That another day of life, might go free Bewitching with tales, when all else fails, to curb the wrath of the king (Chorus) In a Persian market place, slave girls sell their bodies for a price In the city of sin, that will pacify, your every vice Salam o exalted one, Now you've shared a vision with me Precious sights beyond compare, magic carpets ride the air The back of a genie will take you there, on endless fights On a 1001 nights of Arabia.
