At last the secret is out

I want to tell a secret my dear
I want to whisper it in your ear

I was in my mind for a long time
To tell it to someone in a rhyme

I wanted to tell but I felt shy
I was afraid you might make me cry

Everyone says it in their own way
Now it’s my turn to say it today

Come closer to listen to my words
Promise you won’t be scared like wild birds

I love you more than anything else
When I am with you I don’t need veils
