Henna
The colors of henna
On my hands
Promising of
Glorious days to come
Oh how my heart sings
The smell of henna
Sometimes strong
Sometimes mild
Took me far away
Into a fantasy land
The bond of henna
So strong
And yet so delicate
Tying with him forever
Oh see me dance
The design of henna
So intricate
And beautiful
My whole life in my hands
I kneel and pray
Henna, henna
Oh, so fragrant delicate henna
