I want to see you as a dancer |
|
Like the desert gypsy women |
|
Whit candelabras on their heads |
|
Or like the balineses |
|
on their holidays |
|
I want to see you as a dancer |
|
Like dervishes tourneurs |
|
Who twist around around their back-bones |
|
To the sound of ankle bracelets of Katakali |
|
The walls are turning turning all around us |
|
As we are dancing |
|
Dancing |
|
The walls are turning turning all around us |
|
As we are dancing |
|
And radio Tirana's playing |
|
Music from Balkan |
|
For Bulgarian dancers |
|
With bare feet they dance on burning embers |
|
In the oriental island |
|
In sunny summer dance halls |
|
Couples of old folks are dancing |
|
To a rhythm in seven-eight |
|
The walls are turning turning all around us |
|
As we are dancing |
|
Dancing |
|
The walls are turning turning all around us |
|
As we are dancing |
|
In the rhythm of the heath |
|
-the key |
|
Of old tribal magical rites |
|
Kingdoms of the Shamans |
|
And rebel players on the road again |
|
Down across the plainlands |
|
In sunny summer dance halls |
|
Couples of old folks are dancing |
|
A classical Viennese waltz |
