The Enchanting Houri

The Enchanting Houri

WHERE are you leading me, Oh Enchanting

Houri, and how long shall I follow you

Upon this hispid road, planted with

Thorns? How long shall our souls ascend

And descend painfully on this twisting

And rocky path?

Like a child following his mother I am

Following you, holding the extreme end

Of your garment, forgetting my dreams

And staring at your beauty, blinding

My eyes under your spell to the

Procession of spectres hovering above

Me, and attracted to you by an inner

Force within me which I cannot deny.
