Chant for the Sleepless
---- Can't sleep?
Count some sheep ----
---- Lose count?
Catch a mount ----
---- Ride him far
Ride him fast
Save his speed for
the very last ----
---- Feed him berries
and honey too
Guard him with camels
of the elite and few ----
---- And when the desert
tribes do meet
Race your steed and
know you'll beat
His brothers and sisters
of that farwawy land
For he is one of Ismael's band ----
---- Can't sleep?
Count some sheep ----
Lose count?
Catch a mount ----
---- Ride him fast
Ride him far
Ride him to the
Sands of Zanzibar ----
--- Lotus ---
