A black queen from Kada
Elegantly beautiful
Naturally endowed in black African tint
O lily of the North
How my love grows in faith with destiny
Black heroine, mother of warriors
Brave warrior of the East
You are lovely and persistent
I love to hear his chords of talk
But, will the music have a pleasing sound?
If l knew what love is
It is because of you
Your beauty is African beauty
O daughter of the North
Fairest in heart among women
That l may seek you like a piece of pomegranate
And your temple hides behind your veil
You must know that loneliness sold a bond in my heart
But you came to rescue me
O brave warrior of the East
How could so much love be found in you?
You clung unto me like a song of love
The deepest affection to the simple pleasure with your virility in display
I found an Amazon in the forest of love
Where many trees reside
The tree l desire stood in the midst of the forest unbent
O Sarauniya, my heart’s love
Would you come to me?
My hairy chest waits for thy soothing touch
You eliminated my sense of loneliness by loving me
As warmth replaces cold
Conversation replaces silence
My lips are soft
My body as velvet and my cold embrace turned warmth
My lover has come along the path that lovers thread
Lonely days over and life is like a new song
I am waiting for you in the lonely Street
Singing to the birds about my love
Your perfume stood in between to remind me that you are near
Your thought is a plate of love in my heart
And my heart feeds the love therein untold
