You, who like the moon at night

Haunted my mortal heart ...

You who made this ancient walls

Shine like divine marble

The unwanted breath - through creedence

A derelict shell in the desert

- Mesmerised -

As love inflamed the night

Burning tongues brought the rain

The sand remained - purified

Murmur at the meager's spear

Battered Carthagian pride

The beloved cry - wasted dismay

Invasion of baseness and shade

You, loved by your father

Innocent as a vestal - dove

Buried in a deep blue sea

As we all lose - ever
