Kashka From Baghdad

	Kashka from Baghdad
	Lives in sin, they say,
	With another man,
	But no one knows who.

	Old friends never call there.
	Some wonder if life's
	Inside at all
	If there's life inside at all.

		But we know the lady who rents the room.
		She catches them calling a la lune.

			At night
			They're seen
			Laughing,
			Loving.
			They know
			The way
			To be
			Happy.

	They never go for walks.
	Maybe it's because
	The moon's not bright enough.
	There's light in love, you see.

	I watch their shadows,
	Tall and slim,
	In the window opposite.
	I long to be with them.

		'Cause when all the alley-cats come out,
		I can hear music from Kashka's house.

			At night
			They're seen
			Laughing,
			Loving.
			They know
			The way
			To be
			Happy.

		"Watching every night.
		Don't you know they're seen?
		Won't you let me laugh?
		Let me in your love.

		"Watching every night.
		Don't you know they're seen?
		Won't you let me laugh?
		Let me in your love.

		"Watching every night.
		Don't you know they're seen?
		Won't you let me laugh?
		Let me in your love.

		"Watching every night.
		Don't you know they're seen?
		Won't you let me laugh?"
