It will not grow a thing &quot;Taste eternity&quot;, the swords sing Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah They lie where they fall, there's nothing more to say The desert stars are bright tonight, let's meet as friends<br /><br />The flower of Islam, the fruit of Abraham The thousand stories have come round to one again Arabian night, our gods pursue their flight What fatal flowers of darkness bloom from seeds of light Bird of Paradise fly in the white sky<br /><br />Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah Let's see with our heart these things our eyes have seen And know the truth must still lie somewhere in between<br /><br />Under eternity Under eternity Under eternity Under eternity Under eternity Under eternity<br /><br />Bird of Paradise fly in white sky Blues for Allah, Insh'Allah <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/deadsongs.vue/topics/26/Blues-For-Allah-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Wed, 10 Sep 2003 23:55:00 PDT http://www.well.com/conf/deadsongs.vue/topics/26/Blues-For-Allah-page01.html#post0 Blues For Allah w: Hunter m: Garcia AGDL: http://arts.ucsc.edu/gdead/agdl/allah.html LASF: http://www.whitegum.com/songfile/BLSALLAH.HTM <small>[<a href="http://www.well.com/conf/deadsongs.vue/topics/26/Blues-For-Allah-page01.html">Read entire topic</a>]</small> Wed, 10 Sep 2003 23:54:00 PDT
