Sheikh, come, drink a little, just a taste,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, time to waste,
Then tell us what this "I" does embrace,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, time to chase.
Why do you stand apart, from all we know,
Why do you stand apart, where shadows grow,
Become my enemy, let your spirit flow,
Become my enemy, watch your true colors show,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, time to know.
Sheikh, come, drink a little, time to grow.
What is good, what is bad, this prayer we make,
What is good, what is bad, for goodness sake,
If you understand, our hearts you will awake,
If you understand, a new world you will take,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, for your soul's sake.
Sheikh, come, drink a little, for goodness sake.
Leave the logic of the mind behind,
Leave the logic of the mind, let feeling find,
Listen to your heart, be forever kind,
Listen to your heart, leave the past confined,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, peace to find.
Sheikh, come, drink a little, peace you'll find.
We will unravel all the world's despair,
We will unravel, burdens we will share,
But first, your tresses, let us softly snare,
But first, your tresses, your beauty to repair,
Sheikh, come, drink a little, let your soul declare.
Sheikh, come, drink a little, beyond compare.
Sheikh, come, drink a little, in the air.
