In the sea of sand, your gaze rested on me like the cool oasis after the ride Your laughter struck my heart like the first sip of tea by the fire I carried your name in my mouth like sweet dates in the wind And every step toward you was a journey home through the silent night Oh, my heart, do not go away stay by the warm fire Oh, my heart, hear the call the fiddle is already singing your name You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Beneath the moon and the canopy of stars (beneath the stars) You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Come into my song, come into my tent (come to me) Your mother gave me bitter mint your father looked at me in silence The elders nodded softly as the desert wind bound us together I placed blue cloth into your hand you laughed and chose my path Since that very evening my blood has been dancing in circles Oh, my heart, do not go away stay by the warm fire Oh, my heart, hear the call the fiddle is already singing your name You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Beneath the moon and the canopy of stars (beneath the stars) You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Come into my song, come into my tent (come to me) When the deep bass of the guembri calls I do not walk alone Your breath moves with me through the endless sand All voices fade in the wind all hands close the circle And where your gaze breaks the veil a new morning grows You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Beneath the moon and the canopy of stars (beneath the stars) You are mine, you are mine (you are mine) Come into my song, come into my tent (come to me) Heya, heya my heart knows your soft step in the sand Heya, heya stay, until the sun sings
