Στην αγορά του Αλ Χαλίλι [Stin agora tou Al Halili] [English translation]

The desert wind will sear the Nile's landscape

an ancient fragrance will intoxicate

as you will be in the Tropic of the Cancer

inside you a fair goddess will condensate

Your holy vapour woven oracle be gentle

to answer me when I'll be asking you

to enter as a high priest in your temple

to interpret and be intrepreted too

[Chorus:]

In the souqs of Al Khalili

should your lips for sale be freely

for two fortunes and some change

then I would pay twofold gladly

any rate I'd double madly

to have a hickey in exchange x2

I'll buy you from Karnak all the treasures

will local artists we'll be talking through

the nights I'll do you favours and give pleasures

so many things that no one ever did for you

I'll be the spring amid the Siwa oasis

and you will be a diamond spangled sky

you shall be queen of Thebes with all graces

me the majestic Pharaoh you'll rely

(chorus)
