Woman In The Waves

When I was a boy of twenty-two

I stood before a statue

Was it you?

They shake the fruit when they dance

You should try some when you have the chance.

Her face had no power to deceive

She wore her beauty shamelessly

Like Eve.

Guavas can be bittersweet

But the mango's always good to eat,

Love has complicated my past.

God nows I left no stone unturned.

Now I realize that at last

I've found her again.

She understands how the blue water behaves.

Mother-of-pearl is the woman in the waves.

My eyes could travel her beauty for always.

Gold of the sun is the woman in the waves.

I know that my life has led me here

To where the dolphin jumps

And the sky's clear.

Here we live without locked doors

Share and share alike- what's mine is yours.

I see invitation in your smile

To celebrate our passions

Without guile.

In the noa noa night

Nave nave's a familiar sight.

I am avare of her fragrance

Even when she disappears
