Renaissance - The Festival lyrics

Sheherazade this day is yours

The bearers of your gifts now all around you stand

The finest silk made in the land

Is waiting for your choice

It shimmers at your hand

Sheherazade your life is one

You have today the sultan's love

The people watch you step into the sun

Stalls and bars of every kind

Food piled high on woven leaves for all to eat

Drums and flutes at every turn

The music windingtwisting through the crowded streets

Caravans from far away bring people laughing

People come to see the sultan in baghdad today

Scheherazade her name is known

Her tale is told

The sultan let her life be spared

The festival begins this day

To celebrate her fame

The people sing her praise

Stories sungthe crowds are dancing

To the music and the entertainment all the voices sing

The people call to see the king

The sultan smiles

His story just begun

The sultan and sheherazade are one

Scheherazadescheherazade

She told him tales of sultans and talismans and rings

A thousand and one nights she sang to entertain her king

She singsscheherazadesheherazadescheherazadeetc.
