Fly me somewhere warm
Where sunshine aplenty
And the breeze gentle
With hints of the sea
The shimmering lapis lazuli
I will bring with me
A gift to you
May our love never flee

Will it be the same
When we next meet by the sea?
In the cabin made of cedar
That you have built for me
And I shall forge
From the metal wheels
The most illustrious golden key
A gift to you
May you set the chariot free

My beautiful Ishtar
I will be your lion by the sea
Only to fall into the seven pits
I will be your stallion
If you will be there for me
Only to be bound, whipped and spurred
I will be your shepherd
Nourish you
In your time of need
Only do not turn me
Into a wolf in heat

My love when will we meet again?
In the cabin by the sea
Just the two of us
Only you and me
The lapis lazuli on your neck
A gift from yours truly
May you always remember me
