Black Diamond
An elegant black movement
A sparkle from within
Embroidery of golden light
Knitting magic on the skin
Raising the gleaming axe
Aiming at the dry branch
The black diamond in pursuit
Of her daily livelihood
Many a male tourist in the hills
Seeks to have the sparkling diamond
Like a necklace in their body
Whisperings from the black melody
At any such amorous approach
Her hands would put up the glittering axe
Twinkled the lovely cloud-white teeth
Laughter around the hillocks beneath
Two hillocks of beauty and grandeur
Two peaks in blue ecstasy
Two radiant black diamonds
Two windswept trees of almonds
Returning home the black beauty
Sits under the black berry tree
Holds the flute of his companion
While playing it they ride a stallion
Stallions and mountains all around
Some people with orange passion
Love to stay in sunny pursuit
Of the chiseled black diamond
