Slay us, O King, if you desire,
Hew us down, let your fury transpire,
Slay us, O King, your decree we embrace,
Hew us down, leave no trace.
We shall befriend, our hearts entwined,
We shall befriend, our souls aligned,
Slay us, O King, your will be done,
Hew us down, beneath the sun.
We shall befriend, our hearts entwined.
In our hair, jasmine shall bloom,
On our feet, anklets consume,
Our lips, a crimson so bright,
Our eyes, kohl, in the night.
Earrings shall shimmer and gleam,
On our foreheads, jewels teem,
All our charm, every grace,
Every gesture we embrace,
Prepared to show, in every way,
Slay us, O King, come what may.
Hew us down, if it must be,
We shall befriend, eternally,
We shall befriend, our hearts entwined,
Slay us, O King, leave us behind,
Hew us down, your will is law,
We shall befriend, without a flaw.
If you grace our street, you see,
On the terrace, we will be,
We shall signal, our eyes alight,
To our home, you'll be invited,
Betel we'll offer, a king's desire,
And in love's whispers, we'll aspire,
For those words, whispered low,
That lovers whisper, as they go,
We shall speak them, without regret,
Slay us, O King, let us meet.
We shall befriend, our hearts entwined,
We shall befriend, our souls aligned.
