The Anciety City of Alexandria

Do you recall when we saw together the sea On the ancient city of Alexandria? Which light we saw in the sky? Dusk or Dawn? There was a nest hidden in the green lawn With a single egg with white shell? Loud or soft were the waves continual roar, As we saw the albatross soar? Did we together call it an angel of luck? And from your lips, a kiss did I pluck? On the ancient city of Alexandria, There is a realm under the heavenly blessed sea Where the angels do dwell? This day I fancy but in my mind cannot foretell: I just want to never forget, The first time we faced heaven from near the cymbals and harps playing so we could hear, passion dissolved as the waves white crest washed us in our wedding rest.
