Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream

The girl from the Wadi Hammamat

Lovely as a green parakeet

I awake alone again

In the desert of my dreams

A fertile oasis I have seen



I cast my voice to the burning winds

Across the dunes Khamsin Khamsin

Bring her to me on desire´s wings

On the burning desert wind



She means the world to me

In a single grain of sand

Bring a camel to this man

Perched on a bough her tresses hang down



The girl from the Wadi Hammamat

She is as sweet as a green parakeet



Sometimes it seems like a beautiful dream
