| As soon as the Sun was gone,
 She started her trip,
 Leaving away that annoying reality
 She was there,
 On time
 and through the purple light,
 She ran all the way
 Leading to Shahryar's castle.
 
 On his throne,
 He was waiting,
 It seemed like ages,
 Centuries,
 But as the night came,
 Shahrzad was there
 In his hands,
 Smiling and announcing
 The beginning of another
 Holy night.
 
 "What happened to the princess
 With sad eyes?"
 Asked Shahryar
 "In that dark, dark place,
 She was stuck.
 She lost her crown, her name
 And her identity.
 She was thrown in that tough
 Period of time
 When she didn't know anybody"
 Said Shahrzad
 "She didn't lose her identity,
 Shahrzad,
 Since she was still suffering.
 Her beautiful sad eyes
 Are the strongest proof that
 She didn't lose her identity.
 She only needs to find her place,
 Her time
 And her king"
 Said Shahryar
 
 "Yes, your majesty
 Her beautiful and sad eyes
 Were suffering in a crowd
 Of lifeless eyes..
 Evil and dumb eyes
 Were everywhere around her,
 She ran and ran for ages...
 And as she started to cry
 By that lonely river,
 She saw his eyes,
 His wide brown eyes
 They were wild as the wolf
 Charming but sad
 And she knew it was him.
 But he's not real.
 He’s a ghost and maybe a spirit
 He’s somewhere else
 In a faraway land.
 She walked away
 With a broken heart in her chest
 And those wide brown eyes
 Engraved in her heart.
 
 And in the water of the crystal river
 Where they were sitting
 His majesty looked at himself in the water
 And smiled as he had seen
 His wide brown eyes next to him,
 He starred at Shahrzad's beautiful sad eyes
 And said:
 "Say Goodbye to sadness, Shahrzad
 Even if for the night
 Your nights are mine Shahrzad,
 So let me colour it..
 Let me take you back to where
 You belong"
