Sweet ebony queen of mine,

Sit here on my heart’s throne.

 

Smile for your golden smiles,

And with your love adorn my scars.

 

Sweet ebony queen of mine,

Sit here on my heart’s throne.

 

Sing for me your sweet symphonies,

And dance for me to the drums that my heart beats.

 

Sweet ebony queen of mine,

Sit here on my heart’s throne.

 

Whisper in my ear your sweet nothings,

And tell me all the reasons why you love me with each star that twinkles.

 

Speak to me in a language only lovers know,

And brand my heart with your love.

 

Sweet ebony queen of mine,

Sit here on my heart’s throne.
