Lyrics 1001 Nights - Cloven Hoof

1001 Nights

Salam o exalted one
Come share a vision with me
Back in time
For it is written
So it came to pass
So shall it be
Let the centuries unfold
Like the dance of the seven veils
Before your very eyes
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
A Sultan’s delight
Gemstones bright
On a flight to Arabia
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
Told by queen Scheherazade
Shackled and sold
Into slavery
To stay alive
By royal decree
That another day of life
Might go free
Bewitching with tales
When all else fails
To curb the wrath of the king
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
A Sultan’s delight
Gemstones bright
On a flight to Arabia
In a 1001
1001 nights of Arabia
In a Persian market place
Slave girls sell their bodies for a price
In the city of sin
That will pacify
Your every vice
Salam o exalted one
Now you’ve shared a vision with me
Precious sights beyond compare
Magic carpets ride the air
The back of a genie will take you there
On endless fights
On a 1001 nights of Arabia
